How long can the MSM avoid Solyndra and Fast and Furious?

[PBzeer]

As evidence of ethical misconduct continues to mount, how much longer can the MSM keep ignoring or dismissing the evidence?

With the released e-mails and memos concerning Fast and Furious, as well of transcripts of public statements, it's becoming almost indisputable that Holder lied to Congress while under oath. That's simply unacceptable for the top law enforcement individual in the country.

Meanwhile, the evidence grows of undue, ethically questionable influence in the Solyndra debacle. Yet the MSM continues to follow the ends justifies the means line. At best, it's a stark example of crony capitalism.

What the heck is MSM? I googled it, so as not to show my ignorance of what I thought must be a commonly accepted abbreviation or acronym, and all I got was that it was either Methylsulfonylmethane, which is a dietatry supplement supposedly good for arthritis, or Morehouse School of Medicine, and so I asked myself, "Why is John complaining about the Morehouse School of Medicine ignoring evidence of unethical conduct on the part of the Attorney General?" I think the larger issue here is, where does the Mayo Clinic stand on the subject?

I had to ask a while back, it stands for MainStream Media - it is popularly used by the WRW. It is used to imply left wing bias in their reporting. I believe such organs as The New York Times, Washington Post, CNN etc. are what it is directed at.







WRW - had to ask about that one too - Wacko Right Wing. This one is used in a similar manner but by moderates and leftists and is directed at Limbaugh, Coulter et. al. as well as a few of the posters on this forum, usually the same ones who use MSM in their posts. .

OK, so, since nobody could answer my question, I decided that Rush could help me, so I turned him on while going to the supermarket, listening carefully for him to talk about the Morehouse School of Medicine, but he never mentioned it. He just kept talking about the mainstream media, and then suddenly a light came on! I knew I could count on Rush for good information!

I love it when people like Limbaugh use a term like MSM - the implication being they are somehow outside that corrupted world and thereby purer and more truthful.

If Limbaugh ain't mainstream after all this time, there's no such thing.

I've heard several stories about both these issues on NPR, and seen stories in the on-line versions of various "MSM" outlets. But, PB probably doesn't count any of those because he either hasn't bothered to look, or because they were news pieces rather than opinion pieces (with opinions in line with PB's own). You see, some folks just aren't satisfied with media coverage, unless it supports their own preconceived notions.
