I heard this on Rush, then on Hannity. Where is the mainstream media on this?

Unfortunately it is a little too late to have much impact on the election.

Who is this person? Is this authentic? Even if it is there isn't much here. Seems to be mad that Obama didn't take the advice of his campaign staff (which she seems to be part of) to pick Hillary Clinton as VP. That's one of the few election related events I respect Obama for (I do respect his abilities & previous accomplishments). H. Clinton was obviously the best choice for VP election wise but he decided he couldn't work with her and went a different way. Biden has been a disaster so he made a poor alternate choice but I respect him resisting the pressure to make Clinton VP when he didn't want to.
The other stuff doesn't surprise me in the least. If its even a truthful, accurate look at Obama's campaign inner workings.

Do you seriously expect the MSM to refer to Slanthead and Limbaugh as sources? I'd sooner rely on a drunk guy yelling on a street corner at passing cars for concrete political information.
Plus, I like how this "story" is credited to an unidentified "contact" - nice and vague, and impossible to confirm.

You have to ask? Why, in bed with Obama, of course.

Exercising some good judgment and skepticism? If you believe this was written by a Hillary supporter and former Obama campaign worker, then I've got a bridge to sell you.

One takes Hannity and Limbaugh seriously. The other does not.

The rate the MSM is having to lay off people due to falling revenues could be an indication that more and more people aren't taking them too seriously. Just sayin'

As much as you would like to think that because the media is so "liberal" and evil, that isn't the case at all. You have more people getting their news online than subscribing to newspapers and watching the evening news, that's why the decline. People still get their news from these sources just through a different means, for example, say I subscribed to the local newspaper, but stopped my subscription because it's more convenient to just go online to their site and read. The same with evening news, more people catch it online out of convenience. So to offset that, of course there are going to be lay-off like the ones we've been seeing for the past couple of years with newspapers, and focus on putting their money towards the internet and other up-to-date ways to increase reader/viewership.

While it is true that people are etting thier news differently thanks to the internet, there is still a growing distrust of the news media in general.

One reason they are getting their news from alternate sources is because the bias is real, remember Dan Rather? I didn't say that it was the only reason for the rapid decline but it is one of the main reasons.

For the same reason we cant find this statement where ...Bill Clinton stating at the Obama endorsement ...that he is counted among the rich who are going to be taxed, and that he has no problem with that.. Because they want a middle class America 
LG
Ahh, I think I get it... instead of rich and poor, we will bring down the rich and bring up the poor and make everyone financially equal. Even if the poor put themselves in that position and didn't take advantage of the opportunities given to them? Even if the poor chose not to go to college or even chose to drop out of high school, therefore reducing their chances of better paying jobs? Even if the twenty million illegal aliens that are here increased "the poor" segment of our society? Even if the rich worked there butts off to try to get where they are at? Even if we are punishing those who went beyond mediocrity and gave it 100% dedication to make themselves successful?
Thanks for reminding me why I dislike Barack's "change".

See where this thread turned up???
Wow, how'd it get moved into conspiracy central? Seems like it's more of an election matter than a conspiracy. Seems like the mods should have discussed it before moving it.
After reading the blog post:
http://hillbuzz.wordpress.com/2008/10/27/that-is-what-change-means-for-barack-the-redistributor-it-means-taking-your-money-and-giving-it-to-someone-else/#comment-13554
I can see some truth to what she has to say. Look at how this board has been spammed. Yes, there has been some good discussion on candidates and issues, but it seems odd that several members, claiming to be Christiana, have showed up here, very close to election time, and spammed the boards with liberal theology to tear down conservative candiates and build up Obama. They have accused the conservatives of spreading lies and being hypocrites while doing the same thing they accuse conservatives of. It's a pretty effective tactic as I've seen some here take the bait and run with it.
