President Giant Ego

When visiting The View (instead of meeting with UN envoys or let's say some guy named Netanyahu) President said; " I understand that I'm just here as eye candy for you guys".  Say Mr. Narcissicism how about spending time instead finding out how our Ambassador to Libya and 3 other Americans were brutally murdered last week.

Main Stream Media - not a peep, move on, nothing to see here.

New York Environmentalists Explain Why Fracking is Bad

Most hilariously, the enviro-activists have demanded that state officials explore an alleged link between fracking and — we kid you not — syphilis.

They argue that a drilling boom would draw an influx of male workers from other states who would engage in activities of a kind that would spread sexually transmitted diseases.

They also contend that a boom would trigger a housing crunch, adding to homelessness and the health ailments that go along with it.

And that increased truck traffic would not only lead to more road fatalities, but would also — again, no kidding — discourage people from getting the outdoor exercise they need to stay fit.

This is absurd. If New York starts saying no to entire industries on the grounds they might trigger population changes, rising home prices and truck traffic, it might as well turn out the lights.

Well I admit I just wasn't paying enough attention to these issues.

Global Sea Ice Has Increased

What? But the Arctic sea ice has melted to a scary level, right? Global warming is going to flood the beaches of Florida soon, right. Not so fast, scaremongers.

Day 256 Antarctic ice is the highest ever for the date, and the eighth highest daily reading ever recorded. All seven higher readings occurred during the third week of September, 2007 – the week of the previous Arctic record minimum.  

And total Global Sea ice is up

Pravda is a more open media outlet than our Main Stream Media.  

Univision Teaches US Media About Balanced Journalism

Univision decided not to rollover and serve softballs to Obama in a recent televised interview. They asked questions about Obama's promise to provide comprehensive immigration policy in his first year and why Eric Holder was not fired for the Fast and Furious gun walking policy that ended in hundreds of dead Mexicans.  This was not the fun type of Letterman or The View interviews that typically protect him from tough questions.

Journalism: The big media haven't exactly distinguished themselves with their lazy, biased coverage of President Obama. So it's nice to see a media outlet that asks tough questions and informs its viewers. Univision, take a bow.

No doubt, President Obama entered the Univision studio last Thursday for a televised candidate's appearance thinking it would be a cakewalk.

Goddammit This Crap is Getting Way Out of Hand

Mainstream media is caught on open mic coordinating attack questions at Romney presser.

It's there all the time and here's the proof.

MSNBC Wants You to Think There are No People of Color in the Republican Party

MSNBC the network that espouses liberal and DNC talking points 24/7 is the whitest of the networks. All PrimeTime on air personalities morning (Morning Joe) and evening (Shultz, Matthews, Maddow, Mitchell and the other white guy Larry something or other) are white.  The exception is Al Sharpton whose combined talents of political pundit for the left and on air host seem awkwardly intertwined.

So to continue the meme that "that hey it's the Republicans that are racist" MSNBC chose to not show the minority speakers on the first night of the Repub convention.  They cut away from, and chose not even to talk about; a dynamic black woman Mia Love who excoriated the actions of Obama and brought the house down, Ted Cruz - charismatic Senate candidate from Texas, and Artur Davis, a black former Democrat who seconded Obama's nomination in 2008 but gave a rousing speech that appealed to former Obama voters.  You can bet MSNBC literally ran around shouting "make sure he doesn't get on".  It's embarrassing for MSNBC to have to do this to continue to try and fool their 38 viewers into thinking that the Republican party is racist.  Those three speeches rivaled the Ann Romney and Chris Christie speeches that came later in their enervating messages.

Jake Tapper Agrees with Halperin About Media Bias

Our cute little self-coined phrase Jourtegrity Lost has been around for a few years now and judging by how things have gone during the Obama presidency and his re-election campaign (which seem to be one and the same) the term has become more and more prophetic.  Jake Tapper, who has had to tread lightly on his belief that journalism is supposed to be neutral (in order to not anger the ABC news overlords) has again ventured into dangerous waters in speaking about the 2008 presidential campaign.

 "Sometimes I saw with story selection, magazine covers, photos picked, [the] campaign narrative, that it wasn’t always the fairest coverage."

Speaking with Laura Ingraham and quoted in the Weekly Standard Online Tapper simply thinks the media is clouding the real issues of this campaign.
