Tampa Bay Times (Formerly St. Petersburg Times) is notoriously liberal, biased MSM rag!
Home of the equally biased Politifact.com. Known in this area as "Pravada West" has NEVER met a GOP they liked and have biased headlines most of the time today though has provided the CLASSIC illustration of how a 30 second, headline promotes liberal while casting conservatives in negatives!
Attached is the scanned side by side comparison!
Anti GOP Conservative Obama loving liberal positives
Santorum" Cuts to SS" but Obama?? "U.S. administration defends overhaul"
Most people "glance" at headlines and form opinions which are the basis for voting!
Yet it isn't till you read further into Santorum you find "Santorum CUTS to SS" are
are NOT CUTS but higher qualifying age..(makes sense cause people are living longer)
and that the upper-income benefits tightened (and what about you anti-1% people isn't that what you wanted?)
Again biased MSM in the fine print shows the "CUTS to SOCIAL SECURITY" are what the Occupy WS crowd is crowing about but it doesn't fit the anti-conservative narrative!
Then you look at the Obama "U.S. Administration"..NOTE NOT a headline saying "OBAMA administration".. which while technically correct "U.S. Administration" castes a neutral impression.. we are all the "U.S. administration" IN the headline!
But then reading the biased article fine print..
Only ONE reference to Obama! The rest of the story is totally biased presentation!
The BIASED article states: "Law aimed to cover 30 million previously uninsured"
LIE!
1) 10 million "uninsured" are NOT citizens..
2) 14 million of "uninsured covered by Medicaid!
3) 14 million that can afford (over $50,000/year income BUT don't want coverage!
Are any of those facts in that Obama love piece?
Again the headlines BIAS the readers' attention span..
GOP/Santorum BAD cut social security..
while..
"U.S. Administration" ..NOT OBAMA's..
"Defends"... A huge pious sanctimonious LIE!
