Obama gives ABC exclusive access after ABC employees give him massive edge in donations

The liberal media swears up and down that it’s impartial. Completely unbiased.

Of course, that doesn’t exactly square up with the revelation that 130 ABC employees made donations to Obama, but only 4 donated to McCain/Palin.

ABC employees only favored Obama by a 33-to-1 ratio. Why would you doubt their impartiality?

But it may explain why ABC News was granted the exclusive right to tout Obama’s healthcare fiasco in an all-day White House-a-thon broadcast on June 24.

Ace of Spades notes:

If a Muslim group accuses them of exhibiting anti-Muslim bias, they don’t pooh-pooh that charge. They immediately have meetings with the group, put a panel on the subject on Nightline, elevate a Muslim journalist to some sort of bias-ombudsman position, etc.

They take such charges of bias seriously, in other words, so long as the charges come from groups associated with the left.

It’s only when Republicans charge bias they dismiss the complaints and refuse to make any attempts at amelioration at all.

ABC. It used to stand for “American Broadcasting Company,” but now it stands for “All Barack Channel.”

NY Times buries story that could have buried Obama

The New York Times is making headlines for ignoring news that could have damaged Barack Obama, who as you may have noticed, is a Democrat.

According to the Bulletin, “A lawyer involved with legal action against Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) told a House Judiciary subcommittee on March 19 The New York Times had killed a story in October that would have shown a close link between ACORN, Project Vote and the Obama campaign because it would have been a ‘a game changer.’”

An informant had been providing inside information to The Unofficial Democratic Mouthpiece about ACORN’s election activities and several stories had been written. The articles abruptly stopped when it was revealed that the Obama presidential campaign had sent its maxed-out donor list to ACORN’s Washington, D.C. office as a way to “reach out to the maxed-out donors and solicit donations from them for Get Out the Vote efforts to be run by ACORN.”

In what may have been a rare moment of candor, The Times reporter actually told the informant that editors wanted to kill the story because “it was a game changer.”’

Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wisc.) said the footsie-playing between Obama and ACORN could be a violation of federal election law.

The Times’ Senior Vice President for Corporate Communications, Catherine Mathis, stated in an email, “political considerations played no role in our decisions about how to cover this story or any other story about President Obama.”

Take that for what it’s worth. After all, it comes from the New York Times.
