Media Ignore Then Demean 9/12 Taxpayer Protesters
September 15, 2009
Media Research Center - They lie! Even though most estimates pegged the crowd at last weekend’s 9/12 taxpayer protests at 60,000 to 70,000 or more, The New York Times would only say “thousands” marched at the rally in our nation’s capital. And they buried the story on page A37.
Just one day after the event, the Washington Post ran a story denigrating the 9/12 march as having “everything to do with race” while CNN chimed in about the “racial tinge” to the tea party movement.
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg of the liberal media’s mis-reporting of the historic Taxpayer March on Washington, D.C., this past weekend.
Meanwhile, the liberal media continue to promote President Obama’s fast-tracking of government-run health care — with seemingly no regard for objectivity or balanced reporting.
I have included links to recent MRC reports on the media’s distorted reporting on the 9/12 rally in Washington as well as the health care debate.
All these reports were filed in the past few days by our dedicated staff of MRC researchers, reporters and bloggers. We’ll continue to work tirelessly to keep you informed as the so-called “mainstream” media help Obama and the left push their extreme socialist programs on America.
Thanks in advance for all you are doing to expose and counter liberal media bias.
