Republicans finally win one against the media. Icing on the cake that it was an NBC station

Does it not seem to you that someone in the mainstream media would realize there is a great story behind the media's anti-conservative bias?

Kurtz: Debate ‘Absolute Trainwreck for CNBC,’ ‘Disaster For All Of Us In the News Business’  . . . "I’m totally in favor of tough and provocative questions. … But a lot of these questions were not drilling down on facts, or record, or policy."


Debate 3: Ted Cruz Changes the Game  . . . "Everything changed when Ted Cruz dressed down Carl Quintenilla and John Harwood – two of CNBC's far-left commentators – and literally mocked their absurd line of questioning.
"Cruz did not just criticize the questions; he made sport of them.  He demonstrated just how infantile most of the CNBC crew was (Tea Party originator Rick Santelli not included).  Cruz  flat-out embarrassed them, and they knew it." . . .

You knew this next story would come out of MSNBC, didn't you?
. . . "This morning, on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, a similar line was pursued, with even nominal Republican Joe Scarborough hewing to the party line that the GOP field was pathetic." . . .

. . . "Here’s the false gotcha Harwood launched at Rubio:
The Tax Foundation, which was alluded to earlier, scored your tax plan and concluded that you give nearly twice as much of a gain in after-tax income to the top one-percent as to people in the middle of the income scale. Since you’re a champion of Americans living paycheck to paycheck, don’t you have that backward?
"Rubio immediately hit Harwood back: “No, you wrote a story on it, you had to go back and correct it.' ” . .  .


. . . "After 15 minutes it was clear that this was not a debate, but a verbal shooting gallery set up by CNBC, with the targets the Republican candidates and the shooters their biased antagonists from the press,” said Meese. " . . .
. . . "The moderators were so far left and openly combative that it was like watching a Republican debate moderated by the Democratic Party. CNBC’s moderators succeeded in making CNN’s Candy Crowley look fair and balanced.
"Everyone who’s familiar with John Harwood and CNBC had some idea it was going to go this way. Everyone except Republican Party chairman, Reince Priebus." . . .





From NRO:
Cruz Eviscerates CNBC Moderators: Questions Illustrate Why Americans Distrust Media  
"Asked tonight about the debt ceiling, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) instead used the question as an opportunity to provide a blistering critique of CNBC’s debate moderators, earning rousing applause from the audience. Here’s the exchange:" . . .
