Headline: GOP Condones Soldier Slur!

[bigbrother05]

Well, that's what a real, independent media would say.

We can only dream of the nation we once lived in and cry.

1. The problem is...

Such a statement is not newsworthy enough to print, much less put into the headlines. It is like saying, "Headline: Fire is hot!" or "Breaking: The sun rises in the east!"

Sheesh! :eyes:

3. If the other passes

It'll be: Senate Endorses Limbaugh!

[ThomCat]

5. If a Dem said the said thing, suddenly I bet the MSM

would suddenly find it amazingly newsworthy.

Don't you love double standards? x(

6. No, not really. n/t

[valerief]

9. Or Britney Loses Custody of Her Kids. Just as unnewsworthy. nt

2. What do you expect?

Unlike the Democratic Party they actually stick with their base.

4. Well..you got the Headline right!

And this is what I said in another post..

"So the republicons think the Soldiers
are Phony. We now have the record straight. They do not support the Soldiers..they support the corporateMEDIAWHORED Toyko-rush.

Good for them..setting the record straight."

7. Kind of my point. Need short, memorable phrasing.

Keep turning it around on them every chance we get. May never make it to the MSM, but can use it in our real lives.

10. You got it big bro..

11. but if it appeared in today's "liberal media"

there would be a retraction tomorrow, with the acknowledgment that the media erred (translated, it was a Repuke ass-kisser who said it, not a Dem/Lib) ...
