Media Bias: Eyes Wide Open

As an avid investor, it is required viewing to catch The Kudlow Report hosted by former Reagan budget official Larry Kudlow. Last evening, Larry had a discussion with former Obama economic council Jared Bernstein, who has zero credibility, and Douglas Holtz-Eakin, former McCain economic advisor, covering the student vote prospects for President Obama.

President Obama's schedule had him at The University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill to discuss student loans, whose interest rate is scheduled, due to a vote passed by the Democratic led Congress mind you, is set to increase this summer. Take listen to the exchange, and keep your eyes peeled on the video:




I remember, while listening to the Glenn Beck program some years back, a caller reported that CNN showed video which included him at a large anti-war protest that took place in downtown Atlanta. The caller was quite offended, not because he was on television, but because he, and the large crowd, were attendees at one of radio talk show host Neal Boortz's anti tax rallies. 

So, CNN wanted to make it look like there was a large group protesting the war, while the crowd was essentially a precursor to the Tea Party. Can you say media bias?

Kudlow is a Reagan man and a good conservative, and he does not control background video for CNBC. Perhaps, just rolling file video of Obama during a story is common practice? But, after several seconds of video of a small crowd (it was reported that a crowd of @9000 at Carmicheal Auditorium rather than the 22000 at the Dean Smith Center in 2008) during his visit to UNC, video of graduation from who knows when at Ohio State University, a much larger crowd with ceremonies held at The Horseshoe on the Allegheny, began rolling. Come again?

Was this an effort by those running the show at CNBC, which has been drifting hard left in recent years, to promote a larger crowd to the public for President Obama? What do you think?

What we do know is that the media is completely in tank for Obama, destroying any fiduciary responsibility they have in reporting the news without their hideous bias.

Take note and be advised.
