Liberal HypocrisyBefore banning 'crosshairs,' CNN used it to refer to Palin, Bachmann

[teapartysamurai]

But if Palin is to blame for using crosshairs in her much-discussed map, then CNN, by its own use of the allegedly inflammatory term "crosshairs," might also share some blame for creating the atmosphere that led to the violence in Arizona. A look at transcripts of CNN programs in the month leading up to the shootings shows that the network was filled with references to "crosshairs" -- and once even used the term to suggest the targeting of Palin herself. Some examples:​

"Palin's moose-hunting episode on her reality show enraged People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, and now, she's square in the crosshairs of big time Hollywood producer, Aaron Sorkin," reported A.J. Hammer of CNN's Headline News on December 8.​

"Companies like MasterCard are in the crosshairs for cutting ties with WikiLeaks," said CNN Kiran Chetry in a December 9 report.​

"Thousands of people living in areas that are in the crosshairs have been told to evacuate," Chetry said in a December 21 report on flooding in California.​

"He's in their crosshairs," said a guest in a December 21 CNN discussion of suspects in a missing-person case.​

"This will be the first time your food will be actually in the crosshairs of the FDA," business reporter Christine Romans said on December 22.​

"The U.S. commander in the East has Haqqani in his crosshairs," CNN's Barbara Starr reported on December 28, referring to an Afghan warlord.
"We know that health care reform is in the crosshairs again," CNN's Joe Johns reported on January 3.​

Seven uses of "crosshairs" in just the month before the Tucson attacks, and just one of them referring to an actual wartime situation. And one reference to Sarah Palin herself as being in "crosshairs."​

And not just Palin. On September 14, Mark Preston, CNN's senior political editor, referred to another controversial politician, Republican Rep. Michele Bachmann, as being "in the crosshairs." "Michelle Bachmann is raising lots of money, raising her national profile," Preston said on September 14. "She is in the crosshairs of Democrats as well."​

It turns out Preston was back on CNN's air on Tuesday, discussing Palin's recent interview on Fox News. "We saw her on Fox News last night where she is a paid contributor," Preston said. "A kind of a friendly setting, but she defended herself from all the criticism that's been directed at her regarding a Web site that she had put out where she had used crosshairs over 20 Democratic candidates. Now a lot of people said that her rhetoric is inciting violence. She said that that is not true…"​

What we have here, boys and girls, is your typical "it's only okay when liberals do it" scenario.​

The liberal media goes on a witch hunt after the shooting in order to shut up ANY conservative that threatens their long past monopoly, without thinking ONCE if they put themselves in the "crosshairs" (pun intented)​

Once again, we will have mindless paid, er I mean loyal liberals telling us it's not the same thing when CNN does it. It's ONLY "violent rhetoric" when Palin does it.​

Get ready for the rationalization express. It's coming your way!​

I think people are beginning to understand, and aren't afraid of voicing the fact, that PC was invented to get Conservatives to "Sit Down and Shut Up!".

The Liberal retards can self censor all they want but I'm not changing how I speak.

This confirms it, CNN is a bunch of faggots......

Hasn't some left wing group used the 'cross hairs' since the shooting? Something to do with some campaign to stop WalMart opening in DC.

Oh... here it is.... from the group themselves. Note: Crosshairs over the WalMart logo.... along side the Developers house. Charming. Inciting violence.... tsk, tsk, tsk.

Yep, and they're organizing bus trips to protest at the developers home. Can anyone tell me how many bus trips were organized to protest at the homes of democrat reps when the healthcare bill was rammed down our throats? ......

I find protesting outside the private home of anyone to be a particularly distasteful tactic.

Were talking about the left here, silly.....

They'll defend it by saying something stupid like " it's not an issue unless the developer gets shot ".

I'm not gonna hold a whole political ideology responsible for the actions of some groups within it.

However, I await the condemnation from the left about this. Preferably without any justification about how awful WalMart is.
