Cheerleaders for the Democrat Party \u2013 The Mainstream Media <\/strong><\/h1>\n

By Scott Rohter, November 2014<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The jobs report supposedly looks good. The unemployment rate has fallen to below eight percent and supposedly the economy is steadily improving. Almost 500,000 more people have signed up for health insurance at the government\u2019s website than the Administration has predicted. Supposedly it is more than their goal of seven million new registrants. The nightly news seems to be\u00a0replete with\u00a0good news for Democrats. It feels like a\u00a0public relations\u00a0promotion for the Obama Administration which is desperately trying to put another Democrat in the White House and give voters a reason to send a majority of Democrats\u00a0to Congress in 2016\u2026 but is all of this positive news really as rosy as the media is\u00a0portraying it?<\/p>\n

Just how many of those seven and a half million people who signed up for health insurance on the government\u2019s website didn\u2019t actually have health insurance before?\u2026 We don\u2019t know the answer to that question because the media doesn’t tell us. They left that little piece of information conveniently out of their stories.\u00a0 Why is such an important fact omitted from their news coverage of the Affordable Care Act?<\/p>\n

What about the jobs report? Can we honestly believe the government\u2019s own numbers? Can we trust the media to accurately portray the real employment figures? \u00a0How many new employees that have been hired are actually full time employees who receive full benefits as well as a living wage? We don\u2019t know the answer to that question\u00a0because the media doesn\u2019t report the rest of the story. It is a significant piece of information that is always\u00a0omitted from\u00a0their stories. How many of those new employees work less than the minimum thirty hours a week so that their employers don\u2019t have to provide them with health insurance and other\u00a0benefits?<\/p>\n

The mainstream media only tells you a small part of the story\u2026 the part that is always designed to make Democrats look good. They don\u2019t report anything that makes Democrats look bad. That\u2019s why the nightly news has become a nightly charade. It is really just an\u00a0intensive marketing strategy to send more Democrats to Washington, and it is being promoted\u00a0by journalists who are really cheerleaders for the Democrat Party.<\/p>\n
