I don't usually quote/link Ann Coulter, but she has said something really interesting in her latest:Only when it comes to the media do Republicans suddenly become Neville Chamberlain: They don't like us, so let's give them what they want.I must admit, I don't understand why the GOP does this. They continue to let Democrats run the table because they fear the media.
Republicans seem oblivious to the fact that if anyone cared what Dan Rather had to say, Republicans would not be the majority party. Republicans should be required to say this mantra over and over to themselves: "It is a good thing to be attacked by the likes of the New York Times and '60 Minutes,' both of which are losing readers/viewers faster than innocent bystanders exiting the Vibe awards after another random stabbing. It is a good thing ..."
What will it take for Republicans to realize that the so-called mainstream media is nothing more than the propaganda wing of the Democratic Party and should be treated as such? The Dan Rathers, Peter Jennings, and Tom Brokaws will never respect Republicans until they are forced to do so...
Now I realize that what the Republicans are trying to do is come off as the good guys...which they are...but they aren't doing themselves any favors by letting this onslaught continue.
And the Democrats will never learn the lesson they so desperately need to learn (that Republicans had to get awhile back) so long as media bias is allowed to exist. The echo chamber that is the so-called mainstream media need to tell it like it is, not how they wish it to be...
