PLAYING CATCH UP WITH THE FACTS OF THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT INVASION

"If you listened to NPR over the past week, you would have thought the influx comprised only children — youngsters as young as six who make the dangerous journey in a heart-wrenching search for parents already in the United States. While NPR wasn't the only news organization to frame the story this way, it was perhaps the most prominent in the distortion, especially in the descriptions provided by its anchors in Washington as they introduced stories and interviewed reporters in the field.


That oversimplification unwittingly serves the purposes of the White House, which has been pumping out the same misleading line. Officials there drew the ire of frustrated reporters earlier this week when they insisted that they not be identified as they continued to misrepresent the crisis as entirely about children. Masters of manipulation, they hid behind a wall."- CIS

NPR'S MARA LIASSON FAUX ANALYSIS

Mara Liasson, told Weekend Edition on Sunday that Republican criticism of the Obama administration on the Crimea was misplaced. Oh really what orifice did she pull that out of? Here is exhibit A:

"she has stepped over the line with some significant historical revisionism. Liasson neglects to mention that President George W. Bush did, in fact, respond to the Russian invasion of Georgia with swift condemnation and sanctions--which Obama undid just months later.
That was the essence of the "reset" with Russia--which Liasson mentions, but only as a kind of policy posture. Obama not only responded weakly to the invasion of Georgia when it happened, but effectively ratified Russia's occupation of Georgian territory by dropping the sanctions amidst smiles and promises of new concessions.
So not only is Liasson wrong about the Republican response at the time, but she also leaves out the fact that it was never given a chance to run its course. Liasson also neglects to mention that Gov. Sarah Palin, then the GOP nominee for Vice President, warned at the time that Obama's approach would lead to an invasion of Ukraine."- Breitbart

Once again NPR like most of the liberal media shielding Barack Obama and attempting to blame Bush for when it is Obama who is the architect of the failure in the Ukraine.

NPR: OBAMA CARE "Rolled out as planned"

OBAMA'S A NO JOKE ZONE AT NPR!

"Today's edition of National Public Radio's weekly On the Media show featured a segment on recycled advertising slogans, which closed by spoofing the Republican presidential candidates--but declining to spoof President Barack Obama."- BIG JOURNALISM

NPR SHILLING ONCE AGAIN FOR OBAMA

Once again NPR is caught shining President Obama's butt and down playing the real force behind the house cancellation of a redundent aircraft engine.  This NPR suckup moment came on tonights All Things Considered broadcast.  Here is the Obama butt kissing headline:

"In Win For Obama, House Kills Jet Fighter Engine"
by David Welna

A win for Obama? Really? How about a win for the American taxpayer who will not have to pay for this redundant program.  While making it seem like this was all Obama's doing in the headline. The report downplays the real hero's who made it happen. Notably there is no mention of the Conservative or "Tea Party" candidates who came to congress ready to start cutting government waste: Here is the biased money quote from NPR:

"In a notable reversal from last year, the House has voted to kill an expensive alternative jet fighter engine. It's a win for President Obama and Defense Secretary Robert Gates, and a loss for the House speaker and others, whose districts would lose jobs. Half of Republicans who have been calling for deep spending cuts voted to retain the engine. But freshmen elected on a mandate to cut spending put their money where their mouth is and voted to kill it."

Notice the comment about "half the Republicans" of course no bad words about the Democrats. Even though some of them were the real porkers in trying get U.S. taxpayers to pay for this redundent engine. Also note how they go out of their way not to avoid any mention of the "Tea Party" influence in the congressional vote. They are just "freshman elected on a mandate".  The Reports like this show the bias that pervades NPR and are just another reason why NPR sucks!
