I guess there’s no media bias:
Chicago, August 11, 2011 – This week U.S. Senator Dick Durbin held a press conference with members of the mainstream media to talk about the downgrade crisis. But the Senator’s scripted storyline veered off-course when a conservative reporter – me – showed up to ask an embarrassing question. Namely, “Senator, you’ve blamed the tea party…but do you bear any responsibility for this downgrade crisis?”
What, you didn’t hear about this incident in the media? For those of you that need more proof that journalism is dead, read on.

I stood my ground and asked the question a number of times. “You’re not allowed to ask questions during a press conference,” bleated Anderson. “We are going to have you thrown out by the cops,” he said, running interference for Durbin. In addition to doing news for the Illinois Radio Network, Anderson apparently moonlights as an unpaid member of Dick Durbin’s staff.
And, according to John Kerry, et al, this is a “Tea Party Downgrade”. Yep, no responsibility being directed towards the drunken sailor spending policies of the Democrats (assisted by the Republicans). The media will not hold any tender Democrat toes to the fire, and they do whatever they can to assist the liberal agenda and protect their comrades
Then the “regular” media arrive with their puff questions, but the Kelly continues to try to get his questions answered. Some might describe Kelly as rude, when rudeness is considered to be a virtual by some aggressive reporters. Regular media types resent the intrusion and soon try to crowd out .
I’m sure there are a multitude of examples out there. It’s okay with me if they want to report the way they’re doing – as long as they present themselves as biased commentators, not unbiased reporters.
