PALIN INTERVIEW & THE "NEWS" BIAS

In order to see the Gibson interview of Governor Palin, Linden had to overcome his aversion to network news programs. He probably didn’t see all of the interview, but enough.

One only needs to check “Charlie Gibson’s interview questions for Obama vs Palin” as presented by American Thinker’s Thomas Lifson on September 14 to see the media bias. There are others who have presented the same unfavorable report on the media. A Newsbusters posting by P.J. Gladnick on September 13 entitled “ABC News Edited Out Parts of Sarah Palin interview presents the same type of information.

While searching for specific to the interview type reports, Linden saw at least one site that listed newspaper headlines on that subject which casts Governor Palin in an unfavorable and he thinks untrue light. Why can the liberals not accept the fact that Governor Palin is most obviously better qualified for an executive position than the ones they support.

On an almost completely different subject, should advertisers who support these “news” reports and others areas of obvious bias be made aware that people may start holding them responsible for the content of that which they support?

LINDEN'S LIFE:
Thursday: Normal breakfast meeting. Had a very good “Golden Glows” pitch-in luncheon: Youth Pastor Josh Cadwell gave the devotions and he asked me to say a few words about memories of grade school years. I mentioned a time about 66 years ago. Two or three others also had comments. Norm Stout came by in the evening and pulled out some dead evergreen shrubs. I guess “evergreen” is a misnomer.
Friday: 6:00 Men’s Prayer Breakfast – steak and eggs with potatoes. Good! Did incidental stuff later.
Saturday: Worked outside a little. Went to a “Backyard Bash” hosted by Dan & Barb McGrew and Lee & Kathy Seitz at the McGrew home in Danville. Very nice time. Lee used to have a TV show that I would appear on occasionally.
Sunday: Morning and evening services at my church. In the morning, I didn’t stay for Sunday school: I developed a severe earache – it hurt both externally and internally: It was much better after a long nap.
