Why The Hell -Is the "So Called Liberal" mainstream media covering for Ann Romney?

Why is the mainstream media covering for Ann Romney?
July 19, 2012

MSNBC (Andrea Mitchell) & HuffPo both scrub out the ‪"You People‬" part of the comment in 2 different ways:


“We’ve given all you people need to know and understand about our financial situation and how we live our life,” the candidate’s wife added.

Oh, hell no.

I don’t ever want to hear anyone talking about liberal media bias ever again. Like, ever.



We’re still hearing about “clinging to guns and religion,” but Huffington Post and Andrea Mitchell Reports just up and edit Ann Romney’s own words to make her sound less privileged and snooty?

After she says “you people” to ABC’s Robin Roberts who is, for those who don’t know, a black woman?

COME THE FUCK ON. REALLY?!

It's funny that MSNBC and Huffpo have got different quotes, quoting the exact same phrase. CJCRANE Jul 2012 #4

Same reason the "librul media" is gloating over the new poll saying Romney is leading. They can hardly keep the smiles of their faces.

She has to be protected from the hardball questions of andrea greenspan.
After 11 years with MS, my sister died. Broke and broken.
I wonder how much better her life could have been with a couple million in petty cash.
anny, dear, comes across as defensive, entitled and snooty.
Barbra Bush snooty.

They censored different words. Don't they ever consider that some people might be paying attention and notice that they don't match up?

If they are going to misquote, they could at least agree on the same misquote. They're pathetic.
