Poll: Black & White Ferguson Residents Agree - Media Made Things Worse   .... "The media didn't care about facts, so injustices was manufactured -- just so a bunch of elite, rich, predominantly white, leftwing  cable news anchors and reporters could grandstand and pretend they are Down With The Struggle.

"This poll won't matter. No one in the elite media gives a damn about the residents of Ferguson. The media storm was never about making anyone's life better. It was about preening and politics and pretty pictures of burnt out buildings. The media fed the mob at the expense of the people. And they can't wait to do it again."

And of course, in 2008, it went all-in to champion a man who was clearly not ready to be president, to the point of actively burying potentially damaging stories about him and refusing to run op-eds from his opponent." ...   Emphasis mine, TD

 The press on domestic violence    On Obama's 2008 Father's Day address in Jesse Jackson's Chicago church:

Obama’s message was unequivocal. The New York Times took a day off from worrying about the separation of church and state and headlined its article on the talk,“Obama Sharply Assails Absent Black Fathers.”
