One doesn’t have to look hard to discover why MSNBC and CNN jostle each other for last place in cable news ratings.
Yesterday, as the Tragedy in Tucson unfolded, FOX gave viewers the journalistic basics – who, what, where and when.
They left out “why” as it is yet to be determined, but that didn’t stop the other networks from making both assumptions and accusations. CNN and MSNBC put on the full Alinsky, disgracefully exploiting the shootings to make political hay.
In Rules for Radicals Saul Alinsky said, “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it and polarize it.” So instead of blaming the actual shooter and his twisted left wing political philosophy, the mainstream media followed Alinksy’s instructions and blamed all their usual suspects: Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and the Tea Party.
Liberals, the fraudulent Guardians of Free Speech, are once again making a pitch to silence speech they don’t agree with. Yet they choose to ignore the hateful screed of the liberal Daily KOS, who published, then scrubbed, multiple attacks on Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, including bulls-eye targets and expressions of “She is dead to me now.”

They tossed buckets of blood on Sarah Palin, then pointed their fingers and yelled, “She has blood on her hands!” And they did so without shame, without any sense of hypocrisy.
Six dead, including a child. A dozen injured. Dozens more in pain – the family and friends of the victims.
And all the mainstream media wants to do is exploit it, further fracturing the nation.
After Tucson, it can no longer be said that Obama’s media minions lean left. There is no lean – they are completely, overtly liberal. They’ve discarded the mask.
Yes, after Tucson it’s clear to see why CNN and MSNBC battle each other for last in the ratings, why they are so far back they are invisible in FOX’s rear view mirror.
Small justice, in that.
