Media Challenge Limits of Ethical Behavior


The mainstream media continues to challenge the limits of ethical behavior as they continue to fail ail Americans in providing the truth in American politics and government.

The MSM has taken up the cause of liberal Democrats to demonize the Koch brothers, libertarian supporters of conservative causes and important social philanthropy.

[...] The three network news channels have devoted nine times more coverage to the political activities of Charles and David Koch than those of Tom Steyer and George Soros, Fox News reported on Tuesday.

Media Research Center vice president Dan Gainor said the discrepancy demonstrates that “ABC, CBS and NBC have set ethics aside and joined a liberal crusade to demonize conservative billionaires David and Charles Koch.” [...]

This historical importance of a free and unbiased media should not be ignored.  The media has been granted special privileges of immunity in certain cases to pursue the truth to keep potential tyrants in government in check and open to public scrutiny.  America's mainstream media has failed their ethical and professional obligations to uphold those moral aims.

[...] ABC, CBS and NBC have entirely ignored big-monied liberal organizations like the Democracy Alliance, which is spending $200 million to “to boost liberal candidates and causes.” Even on June 23, when Politico reported on a secretive April Democracy Alliance meeting, there was no coverage.

Broadcast journalists have had it in for the Koch brothers. Their contributions, we’re told, have funded “very, very conservative causes,” they operate in “secrecy” and are part of the “elite.” One ABC story featured representatives from three separate George-Soros-funded organizations to criticize the Kochs. Not one of them was identified as such.

To journalists, only conservative money is ever suspect. Those neutral network types even dug up professional left-wingers like “Colbert Report” host Stephen Colbert and ultra-liberal Chris Matthews, of MSNBC, to whine about conservative money. [...] ((TJOC: Instead of a tingle running down their legs, it will be a tinkle - stream - when the brown matter hits the fan.))

The mainstream media of the last several decades has overturned 200 previous years of mostly ethical and professional behavior to become the lap dog of liberalism and all the perversions it has brought to our constitutional republic.
