The Liberal, Bush-bashing NYT Buries Breaking News

That "liberal" media is at it again! The breaking news about a statement which will be officially out tomorrow (Wednesday) appeared in the New York Times yesterday. Excellent! This is a huge story. The 26-member group that calls itself Diplomats and Military Commanders for Change says BUSH MUST GO! But unless you were searching for it with a magnifying glass, you may have missed the tiny AP piece since it was buried on page 16 of the A section. The NYT must have thought it was important, but they obviously didn't want to make a big deal out of it. This may be the journalistic version of "best of both worlds!" Put it in print, but virtually hide it for only the most persistent readers to discover. Here's the URL for the NYT article.

It's hardly worth going to see it. Trust me! It really understates the whole thing. It's just a whisper. We have to start shouting! No more whispering!

You can click on the title of this blog to go to the LA Times article which appeared Sunday, June 13th. That article gives you the real news.

Are you like me? Do we depend on American newspapers and TV to find out what's really going on? Of course, we don't! I read the Virginian-Pilot religiously every day, but most of the news I already know from the Internet. I read out of curiosity, but I have the information sorted out in advance. I'm spending hours every week learning all I can so as not to be fooled by the media. We have to be wise as a serpent these days.
