Cartoonist Michael Ramirez unloads about media bias

Journalists, man up (or women up as the case may be) and read it.

Ramirez asks a simple question…

Where is the real news?

Since the recovery began in June 2009, real median household income has fallen 4.8%, according to a new report from Sentier Research. This report is especially damning because incomes only dropped 2.6% during the recession.

Shouldn’t this be front page news?

The deficit is closing in on $16 trillion. That’s $1 trillion more than our entire GDP in 2011. The U.S. is on its way to becoming Spain. The president’s solution? Raise taxes on the upper 2%. But that takes in only about $45 billion. The CBO reports our deficit in 2012 is $1.1 trillion.

Where are the media truth tellers on this?

He also repeatedly describes how the MSM/legacy media is all over gaffe’s from Republicans but virtually ignores the same from Democrates. Golly gee, knock me over with a feather.

Ramirez concludes…

The media’s No. 1 job should be to cover the substantive issues of this campaign without regard to party affiliation or philosophical bias.

That it’s now acceptable for many in the media to flaunt their bias should be, to use Joe Biden’s words, “a big f-ing deal.” Sadly, it isn’t.

Sadly. Ask yourself why you’re too blind to see?
