The JournoList

Silent Revolution: How the Left Rose to Political Power and Cultural Dominance by Barry Rubin:
The Third Left’s subversion of bedrock American institutions such as the news media has only become more emboldened. A more recent example Rubin cites is the 2009 JournoList scandal, a product of the machinations of former Washington Post star pundit Ezra Klein. Influential writers, academics and members of the press on the confidential JournoList list-serv spoke of how to be most effective in ensuring Obama’s election victory in 2008. They told colleagues to deflect attention from Obama’s relationship with Jeremiah Wright by calling Obama’s conservative critics racists. Rubin also cites Ryan Donmoyer of Bloomberg News who said, 'Is anyone starting to see parallels here between the teabaggers and the rise of the Brownshirts?' Yet, says Rubin, 'not a single serious investigation was conducted about Obama’s earlier life.'
The JournoList was America's mainstream media treating the American people like mushrooms so that the media's preferred candidate, President Barack Obama, would be guaranteed to win reelection in 2012. 151 names of American journalists have been confirmed and they include members from the Washington Post, NY Times, New Republic, Newsweek, POLITICO, Economist, CNN, The New Yorker.

America's Media - Defend Islam At Any Cost

The Role of America's Media in America Today Is To Defend Islam, including Islamists, At Any Cost

When Nidal Hasan murdered thirteen American soldiers at an American military base, Fort Hood, Texas, the elite group of mainstream liberal journalists, Journolist, debated whether the media should report on Hasan’s apparent ties to Islamic extremism. Should we report that just before the massacre Major Hasan shouted “Allahu Akbar!” and then opened fire on his fellow warriors, the Journolists agonized.
Journalist Luke Mitchell, of Harper’s magazine, argued that reporting truth to Americans was more dangerous, than ignoring or covering up, as truth could enflame Americans against Islamists. He wrote that doing so “points the way to things that are actually alarmingly dangerous, such as the idea that there is a large conspiracy of Islamists at work in the United States, that we need to ‘do something’ about this conspiracy."

Tea Parties - Too American for America's Media

As one who was reared in the "former" United States of America, the Boston Tea Party and others like it were cultural icons, as "American as Apple Pie." Not anymore in today's America. This year when citizens organized themselves into modern-day Tea Parties in honor of their patriot ancestors of the Revolution, journalists of America's corrupt media immediately began deriding them with a very obscene and vulgar word describing a homosexual sex act.

Anderson Cooper was among the first of the so-called "journalists" who set the example for the rest of the rabid pack to follow. It was he who used the word meaning a homosexual act in April when Tea Parties were first being announced. Over and again Cooper gleefully injected the vulgar slang as often as possible into his derisive comments on the tea party protests. When his professionalism as a national journalist was questioned for such offensive language, Anderson Cooper eventually was forced to apologize.

But Anderson Cooper set the example that virtually all television networks and Democrat politicians today continue to use to ridicule American citizens exercising their constitutional right to assemble and protest.  These journalists and Democrats have no shame at all in referring to grandmothers, stay-at-home moms, babes in arms, children in strollers, disabled veterans, and whoever else dares to protest the government, with a homosexual expletive so vile, that most citizens at Tea Parties have never heard before.
