Thank you for visiting the "Media Bias" page. Ever wonder about media bias and whether information being reported was being spun, misrepresented, regurgitated, or supressed? I have been growing ever suspicious about what some people have been describing as the "lamestream" media. Is there any objectivity? Is the information fair and balanced?
Remember when the media used to be called the "4th branch of government" when reporters would risk life and limb to out scoop their competitors? They pulled no punches.
Now, we have media not only enabling the Obamanation Administration, they are aiding and abetting them. Republican President Richard Nixon resigned his office because he was embroiled in the Watergate scandal. Yet Mr. Obama has been embroiled in many more serious scandals and is seemingly given a pass by the media. Something stinks...and now I know why.

CNN, CBS News, ABC News Honchos Have Obama Administration Family Ties

If you want to understand why the mainstream media is so in love with the Obama administration, this can in part be explained by the fact that a number of big shots who control levers of media power actually do love high-placed officials within the Obama administration. By blood and through marriage, there is more than just a shared belief in left-wing politics that ensured the American media became a mouthpiece for the Obama administration. David Rhoades, the current president of CBS News, is the brother of Ben Rhoades, a White House national security advisor. If Ben's name sounds familiar, that is likely due to his reported role in the editing of the now infamous Benghazi talking points.
Claire Shipman, a senior national correspondent at ABC News, is married to no other than Jay Carney, the White House Press Secretary. (Jay Carney has since retired. ~ Rodney Spooner)
If those ties between the Obama White House and ABC News aren't disturbing enough, the president of ABC News, Ben Sherwood, is brother to Dr. Elizabeth Sherwood-Randall, a special advisor to Barack Obama.
Virginia Moseley is a CNN Vice President and Washington Bureau Chief married to Tom Nides, a Deputy Secretary of State under Barack Obama.
What is especially interesting is that three of the White House officials listed here, who are related in some way to mainstream media big shots, have ties to the Benghazi scandal. Tom Nides is at State, Ben Rhoades was part of the talking point debacle, and Jay Carney spent over a week repeatedly making false claims about terrorists not being behind the September 11th anniversary attack on our diplomatic outpost.
This might help to explain why the media spent the better part of a month in the run up to the election blasting Mitt Romney for his comments on Benghazi as opposed to the Obama Administration for their bungling and lying about Benghazi.
