Goldberg Slams MSM

FNC’s Goldberg Slams MSM for Double Standard Connecting Violent Acts to Conservatives

On Monday’s The O’Reilly Factor on FNC, host Bill O’Reilly brought aboard FNC analyst Bernard Goldberg to discuss the mainstream media double standard in linking violence by individuals who express right-wing sentiments to conservatives while ignoring the political sentiments of left-wing individuals who commit violence.

And the other thing that the few media that picked up on this theme left out is what about all the things that this kamikazi pilot believed that are opposite of what the Tea Party believes? He’s anti-capitalism – they’re not. He’s anti-organized religion – they’re not. And on health care, he says insurance companies are corrupt and are responsible for the deaths of thousands of Americans. That’s left-wing rhetoric. Why didn’t they connect the dots between left-wing rhetoric and the kamikazi pilot?

So our MSM are arguing: Except for the fact that the kamikaze pilot is on the OPPOSITE side of every major issue the TEA Party movement believes in, he is JUST LIKE those crazies in the TEA Parties.

When someone makes an argument this bizarre, can't we denigrate their intelligence? Please? When do we get to insult those on the left the way they insult people on the right? Especially when their arguments are so ignorant and so wrong!
