Did that CNN reporter finally admit that CNN is liberally biased?

I always thought libs made better protestors, but these tea party folks have a valid reason to be protesting, plus they are not getting paid to protest.

This is one way to fight change with change.

Great post OP..


Not to get to far off topic, I understand the decree of this thread, and I have measurably put my two 2 cents into it. Yet for future reference the best place in my opinion for good unbias news is bbc and PBS, the pbs frontline series is awesome, just a couple days ago they were showing me about the taliban, and if you can,, CHECK THAT OUT. BBC is a lil bias, but they report and keep it unopinionated. CNN is at the bottum of my barol for info.. To stay in context I don't think it is a big surprise for a cnn reporter to really show her leftest opinion on their channel.. Seriously check out that pbs frontline, series should be online somewhere great place to get informed..

How have they hijacked the tea parties?
Please explain yourself instead of spewing talking points.

Are you saying they hijacked it by actually giving the movement some coverage unlike other media?

"Some coverage" is far different from fully promoting it. Fox News has been promoting this tea party for weeks including providing tea party location information on their website, and yesterday every show was completely about the tea party.

What makes me angry about the WHOLE debate, is that people are pro capitalism, and anti socialism, where as the best thing for the economy (ie the machine that keeps money moving so that folks can afford thier groceries and fuel/energy bills) would be a hybrid attitude, allowing one to earn a truely decent wage, without being able to become obscenely rich.

I'm afraid this way of thinking is very common - that capitalism is the cause and the enemy. Often globalism and capitalism are confused with each other, globalism is not ok - capitalism is ok.

The problem is not capitalism. The core of all the problems is unsound, fiat money, and globalism.

Fair distribution of wealth is a paramount issue - but simply dividing money up among people with no regard as to who has earned it is as much a problem as the (immoral and unlawful) concentration of wealth.

I believe health care belongs on the list of government civil services, along with fire departments, law, education, police and military defense and so on - that's neither socialist or capitalist - its simply a matter of what services should be provided by the state.

The true problems being faced by America (and the world) stem from;

1. Unsound fiat money and the usurious banking system - this system eventually leads to the Central Banking cartel owning EVERY asset in the world. Yes - completely true, but completely unbelievable by most people.

2. Immoral legislation, in conjunction with poor enforcement of existing regulation, either through corruption or lack of political will. The result is protection of monopolies, no useful auditing, no punishment for infringement. Take the unlawful naked short sales of gold and silver ETF's, and have people forgotten MBS's so soon? Unlawful re-sale of known trash - then unlawful re-valuation as AAA security - who went to jail over it?

3. Globalist approach - especially being able to artificially 'import' foreign labor by running manufacturing offshore. The result is obvious and instant - the labor market is undercut - they can get cheaper labor elsewhere - so they cut your job, and hire someone from Mexico, or China to do the work.

4. Globalist approach - Failing to protect industries inside your own country by not applying import tariff's. While I do not agree with export subsidies - I believe in import tariffs to protect domestic production and salaries. If you can't export competitively - then too bad, don't export - but domestic production and salaries are the business of each country alone.


Here's a simple example of free market forces on large banks executive salaries;

Smaller companies won't pay those ridiculous salaries - they provide cheaper services - they attract customers. Larger firms have to cut salaries to reasonable levels to remain competitive. So simple - and so true.

The reality is; Large corps use unlawful methods to crush small competitors and never have to see a day in court. The free market forces aren't allowed to hurt them - they are protected by government - whom they appoint and pay.

Restore proper capitalism - get rid of all the protectionist regulation for monopolies, then you will see the larger corrupt organizations crumbling as they are over-run by healthy competition.

Before you will see any long term benefit though - the Central Banks have to be kicked out of every country in the world - each country should create its own currency controlled by its people - preferably based on precious metals or another commodity. Then get rid of the whole idea of credit and interest (usury) - they are the source of the entire worlds misery.

NO MORE BANKS!

A revolution will be needed to remove the government and those corporations from power - revolutions can be peaceful.

Fox and CNN serve the same masters. The only way to confront it is to denounce them both in every public demonstration - people should hold signs that denouncing both on a single sign - or it will be edited.

Fox and CNN liars - you are not our friends, we despise you both equally.

CNN reporter was out of line.
Correct, but out of line.
She had no more right to inject here opinion than Fox does.
