Are a few activists on the Right getting out of hand? Probably. Between massive ACORN voter fraud, Bill Ayers’ and Jeremiah Wright’s unrepentant hatred of America, and John McCain’s inability to nail Barack Obama on his longtime alliances with all of the above, conservatives have plenty to shout about these days.
But a couple of random catcallers do not a “mob” make. And there’s an overflowing abundance of electoral rage on the Left that won’t make it onto your newspaper’s front page.
There isn’t a better article to read in order to understand how “journalistic narrative” is just another way of saying “fascism”. Sure there is much to be desired in the way stories are reported, to often devoid of any disinterested explanation. At least unbalanced reporting can be challenged. But really, even more dangerous, is what’s not reported. By leaving out important happenings, large media outlets really do have control over what the public thinks is reality. How can you challenge if you don’t know it happened?
