US Media "too liberal"

http://media.guardian.co.uk/broadcast/story/0,7493,1058680,00.html

I despair, I really do. But all I can say is this- if these Americans really believe this, then they deserve everything they get. Though obviously it'll be everyone else's fault, not theirs :rolleyes:
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

    Even CNN, which no doubt some in the US see as loony lefty, is undboutedly a right of centre channel.

    Fascist scum such as Fox 'News' is beyond belief...

    The reason you believe this?

    Well, that is because you are a member of the loony left. No offense intended, I'm just stating the obvious.

    That is a cute way of saying the US media is too "Jewish."

    Regardless of whether you agree in full with its political leaning, it would be very worrying indeed if you were uncapable or unwilling to see the extreme far-right bias of Fox.

    If that is the case, I'd recommend you read this book.

    Don't Jewish people tend to be more conservative? I watched a documentary about how a few neo-conservative Jews are running the whole Republican party.

    You'll find high-positioned and high-profilic Jews in both the Democrat and Republican party.

    And to think that just about every other person on God's earth criticises the Jews for being to right-wing.

    You really *are* a brainiac.

    I prefer to watch Fox News over CN, so I must share some of the right of centre views :)

    >>>Don't Jewish people tend to be more conservative?

    I will let them speak for themselves.

    Jews are not just liberal; they are essential to American liberalism, and have been for a century. The first president of the American Federation of Labor was a Jew, immigrant cigar-maker Samuel Gompers. The first president of the National Organization for Women was a Jew, author-activist Betty Friedan. The first socialists ever elected to Congress were Jews, Milwaukee journalist Victor Berger and New York attorney Meyer London. (So is the only self-declared Socialist in today's Congress, Vermont independent Bernard Sanders.) Close to half the young whites who went South as civil rights workers duing the 1960s were Jews, by most estimates. Two of the most influential liberal activist groups of the post-Vietnam War era were founded by Jews, Human Rights Watch/Helsinki Watch, founded by New York publisher Robert Bernstein, and People for the American Way, founded by Los Angeles television producer Norman Lear.

    Even the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People took shape in the home of a Jew, retired Columbia University literature professor Joel Spingarn, who hosted the organization's pivotal 1915 Amenia Conference at his estate outside New York City. An NAACP leader since its founding in 1909, head of its militant faction, and the main ally of black theorist W.E.B. DuBois, Spingarn was elected NAACP board chairman in 1915, then served as president from 1929 until his death in 1939. He was succeded by his brother Arthur, who was in turn succeeded in 1966 by Boston businessman Kivie Kaplan, who served until 1975, when the NAACP elected its first black president.

    The careers of individual Jewish liberals tell only part of the story. For at least a half-century, the organized Jewish community has played a decisive role in advancing America's evolving liberal agenda of tolerance and fair play. A formal alliance of Jewish and black organizations orchestrated the post-Second World War civil rights campaign that led to equal-rights laws in dozens of states, and finally to the federal Civil Rights and Voting Rights acts of the mid-1960s. The major Jewish organizations spearheaded the long campaign for immigration reform, ending with the abolition of racial quotas in 1965. Jewish organizations, working with a wide coalition of civic groups and Christian churches, did much to create the current legal consensus on religious freedom and church-state separation.

    Finally, in a nation where political campaigns are privately funded, an estimated one fourth to one half of all Democratic Party campaign funds are donated or raised by Jews.

    >>>I watched a documentary about how a few neo-conservative Jews are running the whole Republican party.

    LOL what about “neo-conservatism” is conservative? The difference between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party boils down to the difference between the Labour Party and the Likud Party, the difference between New York Jewry and Washington Jewry - not much.

    >>>And to think that just about every other person on God's earth criticises the Jews for being to right-wing.

    You really *are* a brainiac.


    LOL the Jews who dominate Hollywood are right wing? The Jews who overturned our immigration laws, the ones who peddle multiculturalism in our universities, the ones ceaselessly tire to erradicate our culture? Actually, that dichotomy should simply be struck out of history in its entirety. "Right-wing" in the mouth of a liberal is like "civil rights" in the mouth of a Jew - it means something altogether different. Everything that comes out of their mouths in English should be translated into "is this good for the Jews." Just take their stance on immigration for instance. Massive third world immigration into America and the UK is absolutely wonderful in the minds of most Jews, it might just diminish the racial homogenity of America and make it harder for anti-Semites to come to power. GOD FORBID Israel allow all those Palestinians to return to their homes though! Diversity and multiculturalism is great for America and the UK, not so great for Israel. Such things might make Israel "less Jewish" and thatz bad. There are basically two kinds of Jews. There are the Reform Jews who are the vanguard of radical leftist subversive movements the world over and then there are the militant Zionist Jews, like Paul Wolfowitz or Richard Perle. There really is not much difference between the two. They both are concerned principally with "is it good for the Jews." They just have different means of getting there.

    They brag about it quite openly actually. Most people simply do not bother to pay attention to them however.

    Stupidity on a massive scale

    Heydrich
    You choose a board name, that of an SS mass murder, especially Jewish people
    You then spout a bunch of totally Nazi non-sense
    No wonder you Yanks are getting your asses whipped in Iraq. With thinking like that it would the natural duty of anyone remotely human to oppose you.
    I suggest you crawl back under your survivalist rock.
    Perhaps you could arrange for one of your crazed Militia friends to have you shot- at least it would stop that stream of filth you spout.

    60 martyrs to Bush's back pocket. Their mothers must be so proud.
