Mass Media 2

This morning, Sunday, I got up to watch Meet the Press and This Week on ABC. I wanted to hear some thing about that Solyndra deal which on the surface seems like a scandal for the White House. I don't know if it really is a scandal but it was hardly mentioned by either of the two moderators. A couple of guests did bring it up but the moderator quickly changed the subject back to what Obama can do to get re-elected.

I would have liked to hear more about the Boeing deal that may send jobs out of America because Boeing wants to move to a work free state, that is a state within the United States that does not require union membership to work but The Obama administration is trying to stop them. Why? To appease the unions even though, if Obama is successful, Boeing may move out of the US. So, on the surface it seems Obama cares more about his union contributor's than jobs for all Americans.

Now my beef is with the mass media and not Obama. Why do I have to  search the Internet to know what is happening in the world? Why is Tv news now just a department within the democratic party?

Who can doubt if a republican president was involved in giving stimulus money to a company that they championed and also received campaign contributions and then went bankrupt, who can doubt that they would be broadcasting this potential scandal 24/7 ?
