SILVER SPRING, Md. (AP) -- A man who railed against the Discovery Channel's environmental programming for years burst into the company's headquarters with at least one explosive device strapped to his body Wednesday and took three people hostage at gunpoint before police shot him to death, officials said.

It's 10PM Mountain Standard Time... What this guy did and why has been CRYSTAL Clear for most of the Afterlunch...

Yet the AP has to be Painfully Dishonest...

First of all, the Headline doesn't tell you he's a Leftist Environmental Activist who Follows algore...

And WORSE, the First Paragraph is so Unclear that you could take it either way...

He could be a Rightwinger Attacking Discovery for being too Evironmentalist...

Read it again...

If the AP had ANY Shame.

Had this been a Rightwinger of ANY Stripe their Agenda and the Right would have been the Focus...

Yet another Day and another Painfully Biased Wire Story.

Are you implying that AP is biased because they did not refer to the guy as a "leftist environmental activist"? In fact, I would say that it is UNbiased reporting, as they are reporting only the facts.

I'm interested in seeing how they have reported differently on stories in the past, where a right winger was the perpetrator. Since you are the expert on AP stories, would you be willing to find one for me?


I can find more than one...

Hints of "Turner Diaries" at an Active Crime Scene from the Perp's Home... MeThinks that was the guy who Shot up some Jewish Kids in Hawaii... Why he was Considered a "Rightwinger" is beyond me...

The Beltway Sniper was Assumed to be a Dejected Cracker Christian Rightwinger by the AP...

When it was Found out to be (2) Blacks, not only was their Race NOT an Issue, their Islamist Status was Entirely Irrelevant.

Do I have to Link this and others?... Or does your Memory work?

I want to see the actual text to make a judgement on whether they are biased.

The absence of some information is actually important for there to be no bias. The fact that they did not say that this guy is a liberal or a leftist is important, because that fact is not currently known. It can be inferred, but that inference should not be done by a news organization...and is rather unimportant to be reported DURING a hostage crisis. Followup stories can cover that.

As for the anti-right wing bias...dig'em up, bub! I'm not going to do work for you to help you prove your point.
 
He was a deranged lunatic. Are you guys seriously suggesting he was a liberal because an Al Gore movie influenced him in some unfathomable way? Is there an anti-human plank of liberalism I'm unaware of?

I'm more alarmed at vague reporting on whether he targeted the day care center or its employees. This nut seemed to seriously hate babies.

The dude was an environmentalist wacko. That's a liberal tenet not a conservative one. Pull your head out of your ass and wise up.
 
You need to stop eating paint chips.

Really?...

When people who aren't Sure they are a Liberal or a Conservative read something like that, they Doubt that Liberals are the ones who are Compassionate and Tolerant...

Give it some Thought, mmmkay... ;)

:)

peace...
So if they don't mention his political leanings they are biased?
And just because he watched Al Gore's movie, does not mean all liberals are like him. If you don't want to be painted with broad brush, do not the very same thing you are bitching about.

Where did I say any such thing?...

:)

peace...

I'd rather Shit on Glen Beck some more this Morning...

LOL. Another con, finding an example of story coverage that displeases him/her and running with it with laughable extrapolation, as if it's axiomatic of some mythical pre-meditated "bias."

You're no "expert" on AP news.

I work with AP news copy every single night. Hundreds of stories each shift. Shall I provide you with a list of stories for which the nation's news service made the same "ommissions" that covered the ass of conservative heroes of yours? Or ignored them altogether? The examples are vast. How about the fact that it entirely ignored the plane crash that killed Karl Rove's IT guru, Mike Connell, last year despite the fact that he was soon to testify the case against 2004 Ohio election fraud and was neck deep in the WH email purge scandal? Yeah, we're still waiting on AP to cover that story. Just like we're still waiting for honest coverage of WMD fraud and the real death toll in Iraq.

We're all well aware that you guys need to identify some oppressor and play the victim card these days. Gays, Muslims, blacks, communists, Mexicans... the "other" party, the MEDIA... whatever the flavor of the day is. ... But, sorry: The media is corporate, not liberal. Repeat that to yourself, think about it, and let it sink in.

Bad example. Ted was against the industrial revolution, hardly a conservative tenet. He was against leftism, but that doesn't make him conservative.

Nice try, but you fail!

The Ft. Hood Shooter was Most Likely an Anti-Obama, Redneck Cracker... Like Tim McVeigh... Anti-Government and a Christian...

It was Clear that's who it was...

Just like the Beltway Snipers.
