Associated Press pushing its agenda

  • Follow Letters

The newspaper business is sick. Nowhere is this more evident than in the liberal Associated Press "news" coverage of Republican Sarah Palin. But no whimper of complaint by any of the hundreds of AP-served newspapers across the country.

The only complaint news editors have had is not about morals, but the price of the false stories, when five newspaper editors recently threatened to drop AP. Their biggest worry was how they were going to put out a paper, and make millions, without AP, a sign that AP is a monopoly, which spells "trouble."

AP is running scared, and is attacking Mrs. Palin, just as the liberal media did with Hillary Clinton and Nicole Brown Simpson when she, too, was pitted against a black. For instance, a Sept. 5 AP story began by saying Mrs. Palin "seems to have switched colleges at least six times in six years." What's that got to do with being a vice-president? Nothing, AP just wants you to know they are going to be all over her and nobody is going to stop them.

AP is also seeking her grades, but refuses to go back to the college days of fellow Democrat Hillary Clinton, who wrote her college thesis praising communist Saul Alinsky, and who served as a legal intern in the office of the attorney for the Communist Party USA. The same liberal AP has refused to question fellow Democrat Barack Obama about his college-age ties with communists Bill Ayers and Frank Marshall Davis. Protecting a comrade?

Is AP throwing elections and using daily newspapers to force the United States into one-world socialism, since America is the last obstacle to that goal?

This is criminal. This is journalism. Sick.

I say drop AP.

you are a bigot idiot

Please don't print this type of garbage in a local news paper. This type of letter should never make it to print. I agree with you realistineducation, but I am not sure who's the bigger idiot the writer or the paper.

This just in, things are about to get a lot tougher on Mrs. Palin. I watched the ABC News interview and she is not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

The following is from the above LTE.

You have got to admit, that a good deal of the press is biased toward Obama....

just another blind dolt who needs anyone they can find to shore up mcsenile's pathetic campaign.the repukes don't want this guy,who has less charisma than a mailbox.he cannot muster but a couple hundred of valium head old timers who are afraid of their shadows at any of his stops.she is a fraud and will be exposed in time.what do you losers see in her? to me she's just another face in the crowd.if she can't handle the pressure,then she should drop out.if you can't handle the smell stay out of the morgue.

I find it amusing that when McCain has been confronted with his lies, he continues to stand by them in the face of facts presented to him. The liberal media hasn't mentioned Cindy McCain's addiction and theft of pain killers, or that they married after their affair and his subsequent divorce of the wife that waited 5 years for him while he was a POW.

CH

GA@#%head, has the press mentioned that this war in Iraq that Joe Biden is so opposed to is one he voted for? No? I find that amusing. Hows that change we can believe in?

SisterAbdullahX_

Divorced his wife v/s attended a hateful church for 20 years. Which is worse?

GACopperhead

CH, why don't YOU mention the false information spread by the Bush administration in order to justify the war, Iraq trying to get yellowcake uranium(debunked by one of his ambassadors) WMDs that his lead inspector resigned over stating "there are no WMDs in Iraq, that Saddam had Al Qaeda training camps in Iraq, debunked later by his own agencies, That Powell declined to continue as Secretary of Stats(though he had too much class to say it, I believe it was because he didn't want to continue lying for Bush in the face of the truths coming out. WHy must you resort to insults, GA@#%head, rather than relying on the supposed veracity of your statements? You are the type of writer that proves my opinion of the current state of the Republican party: if you don't have something good (or TRUE) to day about yoyur party, lie and insult those who have a different opinion than you. Even if Obama were Satan incarnate, I'd vote for him rather than side with you.

GACopperhead

Abudullah, good morning! I don't find fault with the divorce, his wife was right in divorcing him for having an affair after she waited on him for 5 years when he was a POW. Why no mention of his cuurent wife's addiction and drug thefts?

SisterAbdullahX_

What about the Uranium that WAS found in Iraq. Read about THAT in the AP lately?

factchecker

And the liberal press hasn't mentioned Michelle Obama's thesis in college that slams America. So what's your point about what the press does and does not report? They report whatever is best for "their candidate".

SisterAbdullahX_

Because last time I checked, SHE isn't running for President.

Israeli warplanes bombed a reactor project at the site in 1981. Later, U.N. inspectors documented and safeguarded the yellowcake, which had been stored in aging drums and containers since before the 1991 Gulf War. There was no evidence of any yellowcake dating from after 1991, the official said.
This is from an AP article in the Philly Inquirer. Note that the uranium "found" was secured by UN inspectors since 1991. No new news there, and doesn't disqualify my previous statement about the lie Bush told that Saddam was trying to get more. I haven't said the Iraq NEVER had uranium, just that the didn't try to get more, as Bush said.

GACopperhead

No, she isn't, but his affair with her and her thefts show the "high", pun intended, moral standard of the both of them.

GACopperhead

Because Michelle Obama has voiced a poor opinion of the US, which is the Constitutional right of us all, is something bad? I bet if the thesis were read(which I'm sure you haven't) there would be at least some basis for her statements. I have a poor opinion of the state of this government. Does THAT make ME horrible? No, it makes me one who is concerned for his country and wants to see it improved.

SisterAbdullahX_

And sitting in a church with your Mentor, who is a vile hate filled racist, dealings with Rezco, and Michelle's "Hate the white man" college Thesis, shows some real high moral standards as well. Who's left to vote for?

factchecker

You don't know what it was like in the McCain household when he returned from being held captive as do none of the rest of us. So him having an affair and moving on is his business. Bill "I never had sex with that woman" Clinton lied and Hillary and the world were just mildly upset. Sleeping on the couch in the White House is still sleeping in the White House. BTW, I have read the thesis. My point isn't the thesis it is the fact that the press refused to report it.

Where did the 550 tons of yellowcake uranium that was moved from Iraq to Canada this year come from? Where did the 1.77 tons of partially enriched uranium found in Iraq come from? Where did the 500 plus mustard and sarin gas weapons of mass destruction found in Iraq come from? Where did the chemical artillery rounds used as IED in Iraq come from? Where did the chlorine gas tanks used as VBIED in Iraq come from? Where did the six Ababil-100 missiles that Iraq fired at the 101st Airborne Division, Ali Al Salem airbase in Kuwait and other targets in March 2003 come from? What did Iraq plan to do with the thousands of gallons of precursor chemicals found in warehouses in Iraq? What was Iraq planning to do with the centrifuge parts and blueprints found hidden in Iraq? No - none of these things count toward WMD. The simplest explanation is that "Bush lied". I get it.

GACopperhead

Why do you rail against the affairs of Clinton and Edwards and complain the the "liberal media is picking on the Repubs, but neglect to mention the failings of the Republicans? There has been philandering by Presidents of BOTH parties, Nixon and Watergate, Clntons and Whitewater, Reagan and the Iran-Contra affair, George H.W. Bush and "no more taxes". THe list can go on ad infinitum. I believe that is ALL horrible and reflects the state of our government for the last 60+ years. Why don't we all start talking about constructive ways to improve the integrity of our goverment and those in it? We've lost sight of what we're really trying to do with these discussions. We want to improve our government, but all we do now in here is try to prove that we're right.
I am going to try to change the tenor of my posts for combative to constructive. Will anyone join me?

CH

GA#@#head, you're the type of writer who watches a man go on a murder rampage and claim that he's innocent because nobody understood him. You really want to get into lies that past administrations have told? Fine. How about Monicagate? Clinton lies through his teeth under oath, and only admits it when he's guaranteed immunity from prosecution a day before he leaves office. Want more? Travelgate? How about his ugly pitbull Janet Reno firing all of those prosecutors, and liberals like you didn't say a word. More? How about Whitewater? Those records are sealed and nobody can look at them. More? How about Chinagate? How many technical secrets did that dirtbag administration sell those butchers who gave to his re-election? You say even if Obama was Satan incarnate you'd vote for him. Thank you...you just made my argument about mindless liberals. Oh, excuse me...I'm being redundant! Sorry I can't stay and continue this easy fight, but some of us have to work today.

factchecker

Sure GA Copperhead I will join you but to do that you need to scrap all the candidates and find all new one's that aren't human and make no mistakes. Until that day comes I will vote for what "I believe" is the lesser of the evils as I am sure you will also do from your prospective as a citizen of this great country.

Greed and non-professionalism at it's finest...Well said Tom Hunter...Chronicle excluded...Thanks Chronicle for not giving over to yellow sub-standard journalism but standing strong in the storm...Sound minds will prevail in the end...

GACopperhead

JIC, the uranium was there prior to the Gulf War, and was previously noted and secured by the UN AFTER the Gulf War. This is not evidence that should be used, as it was already in existence and not being used by Saddam. The whole world already knew about it, but you imply that it is new evidence. I disagree with your point. Please note, everyone my previous post, let's get to what will improve our country, not just try to prove that "we are right and you are wrong".

factchecker

I will say to all the Republicans here today to be patient - Liberals will abort themselves out of existence if given enough time. Because it's easy to be pro-choice when you're not the one being killed.

What an idiot. What on the hell does Nicole Brown Simpson has to do with the election? It shows that this letter writer has a problem with race more than politics.

SisterAbdullahX_

Sarin canisters found......but they don't count because they are old....right?

EJ

Well, I see all the hate-filled liberals are up and at it early this morning!

HYPOCRITES 08

These next weeks will be tough for you republicans. We will try to be understanding and know that you are having panic attacks as the election draws nearer. We will be here to listen and let you vent and remind you that it will be alright. We will give you that shoulder to cry on. When your world seems like it is coming to and end, we will be there to let you know that another day will come. When you awaken to your dark world, we will be that beacon of light, to guide you safely back to shore. Remember that regardless of how gloomy your day is, it will be all over in the morning.
