I seems Obama could not be bothered to be wakened on his va-ca golfing to green light an operation to save two English teachers (one American and one Australian) It seems the hostages held in Afghanistan were confirmed and a seal team was mobilized, but the generals are under strict orders not to move with out obama's word (I guess he needs more photos of him infront of a monitor while real men do their jobs on his word.) So of course, by the time he did give the green light (24 hours later) to move the hostages were gone. One of the seal team fighters was wounded in the fight.

Why wasn't this on the news? why when you google  this story nothing comes up but right wing news sources??

Do you guys really think that the major news media outlets are not biased? That they do not hold back certain stories and focus on other ones that support one political agenda over another?

You do know that the media is owned by billionaires, right?

Billionaires who vive for political clout and support in order to be "clinton-ed" (protected) from all of the laws and control they place on the rest of the population.

Indeed and they slew the news to the right, in the case of the uk quite far right.

A (very quick) web search shows me that this story was covered by ABC News, Fox News, the New York Times, the Washington Post, Military Times, and several dozen smaller outlets.

You're a lunatic.

It occurs to me that to those on the far right, everything looks like it's on the left. I'm reminded of the screeching over Obama / Clinton / et al being FAR LEFT LIBRULS - or EXTREME FAR LEFT, which is patently ridiculous to those of us who are on the moderate left and find both of them to our right.

Oh wait, it's that lunatic Drich. Figures.

It's easy to get all worked up like Drich is. At the same time, the cumulative effect of that bias makes it easy to not notice and easier to dismiss. The liberal bias is subtle but it is definitely there. If you make a big deal out of it though it seems like over reaction.

What a scandal. Obama definetely shouldn't be golfing when two teachers are missing. He should take a page from Bush's book. Only go golfing when the services predict a major terrorist attack on American soil. Otherwise it can't possibly be excused.

And what is a left wing media when it's at home? The American corporate networks apart from Fox?

In this case, though, the issue isn't media bias as a stand-alone. Drich intimated that only under-the-radar type news outlets covered the story, that liberal media wasn't interested.

Since this is patently false (I'm given to understand that the New York Times is somewhere left of centre) it isn't so much that Drich is getting worked up over liberal bias as it is that he's getting worked up over an instance of bias that does not exist. This may very well be because Drich is a lunatic.
