Dear Patriot,
Following the
re-election of Barack Obama, the liberal media are shamelessly using his win
over moderate Mitt Romney to scare the GOP away from re-embracing its
winning conservative message.
As
documented by the Media Research Center, the corrupt media are seizing on
Obama's victory to discredit and attack conservatives, the Tea Party, and
Rush Limbaugh in a blatant attempt to splinter the Republican Party and its
conservative base:
* ABC's Barbara Walters
assailed the GOP for being "behind" on social issues.
* The Washington Post went on a mission to
look for right-wingers who plan to buy more guns as a result of the Obama
Presidency.
* The New York Times
called the GOP a dwindling collection of "angry," "grumpy old white men."
* The new cover of Newsweek depicts
Obama as Napoleon while calling the GOP "Old," "White," "History."
* CNN ‘s Anderson Cooper rhetorically questioned
how the GOP will overcome party "extremes" to attract Latinos while his
cohort Piers Morgan trashed the Tea party and the "extreme right" for being
"intransigent" and pushing "archaic politics."
* On election night, NBC's Brian Williams opined that Rush Limbaugh
was a liability for the GOP.
* On MSNBC's
Morning Joe, David Frum claimed Republicans were "fleeced, exploited
and lied to" by the "Conservative Entertainment Complex." Joe Scarborough
agreed, stating that the GOP needs to stop listening to the "most extreme
people" in the party.
* On Sunday's edition
of NBC's Meet the Press, the all-liberal panel agreed: the loss was due to
Limbaugh and the "loons and wackos" of the conservative base.
In response, I released the following public
statement:
"We hear this from the
liberal media every single time the Republicans don't win something. They
have only one solution for the Republican Party: don't be conservative. It's
never about the failures of the candidates or a poor voter turnout effort.
It's that Republicans are too conservative – a false conclusion that
ignores the successful campaigns of conservatives Ronald Reagan, George H.W.
Bush, and George W. Bush.
"The liberal
media discourage candidates from being conservative because it helps their
preferred liberal candidates. Mitt Romney didn't embrace the conservative
base and he lost, just like Bob Dole and liberal media sweetheart John
McCain. The liberal media's rush to scare the GOP away from conservatism is
a deliberate attempt to divide the party. They don't want Republicans to
embrace conservative principals because conservative Republicans win."
Sincerely,
L. Brent Bozell III

in a tax-deductible contribution of $10 or $25 so the MRC can
continue to shine a bright light on liberal media bias and demand they tell
the truth!
