Hey republicans…. If you want to win the election in 2016 after President Obama’s 2nd Term this is not the way to go. 

Half of the remaining Republican presidential field were employed by Fox News as little as one year ago. How is that not “coordination” between the GOP and outside conservative media bullies? Seriously, anyone watching coverage of President Obama and his presidency understands that the line that a “liberal press” has been brainwashing Americans is absurd. If so, how come his approval rating is below 50 percent? Shouldn’t all Americans love him if the press were working in concert with the White House? http://www.sunstateactivist.org

wonder if Tucker questions the Church’s tax exempt status?

Exposing the vile subterraneans at Media Matters is really a public service. Now even liberals can’t claim that it is in any way an aboveboard operation. Sensible ones, anyway.

Just like the CAP, it’s a far lefty organization funded by Soros. When Obama had Air Force One fly low over the Statue of Liberty and all the uproar ensued over the stupidity of that, Obama had a WH employee take the fall and quit. He immediately got a job at CAP. What a deal !

“Compelling reason”? (At the 1:00) Tax exempt status? No.
The reason is Fox is annoyed. You can’t buy advertising like that
GO! MM!

Expose MM? That doesn’t even make rudimentray sense. MM is a website that records and replays TV and radio. Who particularly cares except those caught saying stuff that would rather be forgotten?

It is impossible for this to be a scandal, unless MM sells guns to dectators or something. What is the beef, exactly? Soros funds MM, (although I have no idea if it is true). That is, for some unknown reason, an indictment. Tell us why, dear sir.

Can someone help me out on this? MM is a website that records and plays back mostly right wing TV and radio. What is the story here? 

The story is MM is having it’s desired effect on Fox News. But the more Fox scratches the worse it becomes. Like poison ivy. And yes, I am aware of the opening given to righties with the analogy

MM has got to do something.Afterall their readership is down like 60% over the last year.
If they were’nt on the goverment tit they’d starve to death…

Gloves “Chunky” Donahue says little rodent men who wear bow ties are not respected by mainstream America. Carlson is a like a testosterone deprived George Will. And that’s saying something.

media matters needs more than $50k to do this….they need more money

Sooo, is Fox News sure they’re not coordinating with the Daily Caller on this Media Matters thing?  Because that would be great for Fox News.  Media Matters is always embarrassing them by posting clips of their people saying stupid things.

“What is the story here? ”

Tucker Carlson is trying to be the story. 

i’m surprised you figured out how to turn on the computer.

Recording and playing back right wing TV and radio is a small part of what they do.  The story is what their mission is and how they go about it, including hiring of persons to target and harass off-air employees, and their use of falsehoods, relationship to White House and Obama campaign, and feeding of manufactured stories to friendly outlets.  They exist to attack a group, no real difference between them and that whacko “religous” group that protests at soldiers funerals, Westboro Baptist Church I think they are called.

 Gloves doesn’t like MM…imagine that.

A biased, agenda-driven organization “determining” the “news” and having it directly parroted by particularly MSNBC and other mainstream media without attribution, fact checking and other standards of journalism-  Olbermann did this so egregiously on a nightly basis he was referred to as Rip ‘n Read.  Oh, and the fact that our tax revenue was/is used to do this (tax-exempt status as well as federal grants). That’s all.

So they are just someone you don’t like. 

What is the story, do you know? I am not asking if you think you know, I am asking if you actually know why this is a big story?

Wow – the Daily Caller and Fox News are really coordinating this attack on MM. Tucker Carlson shows up everyday to give his expose just like a correspondent…

“Conservative” scum bags like Carlson are peeing their pants and whining that MM is doing the same thing that FOX “news” did from 2000-2006.

Olbermann was a tiresome blowhard. No different to any other wind bag on Cable. We don’t like them. So?

Try explaining that to any “conservative” scum bag and they’ll give you the deer in the headlights look. It’s too much for their teabagged brains.

 Right?  I work in a mid-size co. that provides business services.  We could charge $50k on business services for a handful of people over just a couple weeks time.  That’s not enough money.

 Hell..I’m all for them attacking Robertson, they should have actually gone after him on his leg press contention that he could press 2000 pounds. He hawked his energy drink for that one…After a while I figured out just how he supposedly does it, he presses the gas pedal on his car. But let’s not forget all of his other lies, that he somehow prophesied about which didn’t come to pass. His excuse is that God changed his mind.

 i’ve just hired someone to follow you emma thomas, and get info on you. hope you don’t mind…

Wow..  This is awful.  If ever there was a group that was beyond any kind of scrutiny it is religious broadcasters, right ?

Tucker Carlson  **YAWN**

Wrong!…

MM gets taxpayer money. It is “supposedly” a non-profit, receiving taxpayer money and tax exempt status.

 This site will verify the many inner-working of MM and why it is facing scrutiny. It isn’t only the religious aspect, but additional stories being uncovered on a daily basis.

http://dailycaller.com/

Looks like Tucker bought Boehner’s old tanning bed.  When will people realize that having orange skin is not attractive.

So you don’t know what the story is apart from you don’t like MM. Why do people think scandal means something they don’t like?

Supposedly? Do you have evidence it is not non-profit while it claims to be? I am sure the police and IRS would like to see it. If you know what the story is apart from you don’t like them, let us know.

the story here is that David Brock has a book on Fox News coming out next week so the smear machine is in overdrive

 Down 60% and yet Fox News pay so much attention to them?

The “Daily Caller” couldn’t break wind if it tried, let alone a real story.

Let’s just go to the ‘grant’ first. That’s not at all what he claims. What MMFA does is monitor media – so a budget allocation to watch a self-defined segment of media is hardly surprising. But a budget allocation is not a segregated grant. IOW Tucker Carlson is spinning off his goofy tie. 

Now let’s go to the budget allocation. Hey, MEDIAITE monitor media also, & it’s had Robertson segments. But Mediaite doesn’t systematically monitor Robertson in any way that’s not commercially motivated, so it’s not systematically definitive, leave aside effective. What MMFA does is apply non-commercial standards to it’s monitoring, not just of Robertson but of all media. Yet Tucker Tie-Spin expects us to believe than ANY monitoring is sinister. Well, to the extent that systematic monitoring increases the chances of finding outlets like Fuppet News & Tucker Tie-Spin are driven by partisan politics, MMFA certainly must seem ‘sinister’ to THEM. 

Finally, let’s go to Robertson. He poses as a religious voice, yet he’s heavily politically partisan; he not only is a Republican, he ran for the presidency as such. That makes him a legitimate target for a media monitoring organization that monitors for systemic partisan political lying. Robertson beyond doubt qualifies as a partisan political liar. 

Game, set, match MMFA. Tucker Tie-Spin loses – again.

They receive taxpayer money?  As Eliza Doolittle would say, “Show me!”

A hard hitting piece of journalism from a guy who was once on “Dancing With The Stars” and has been canned from every news network

I want to see some proof about the federal grants they received.

Oh.  The Daily Caller.  Did they pay you to post?

 why is MM so obsessed with people they don’t like? you’re a true idiot.

 From the lunatic-left d-cRAT socialist dictionary:

“FACT CHECK” = a load of slime, lies, misrepresentations and BS thrown at any non-socialist who dares tell the truth, the facts or describes the mess created by the lunatic-left. It’s often used by the lamestream stooges of the d-cRAT socialists in what is jokingly called “reporting” or “analysis”.  NB: when done for ANY STATEMENT by ANY lunatic-left d-cRAT socialist the “fact check” ALWAYS concludes that the d-cRAT socialist is 100% absolutely, positively, unquestionably correct – so nothing to see there, just move along, folks.

If Fox News was a credible news organization, they might be taken seriously on this story… but since they’re not, this is nothing more than Fox news propaganda!!

It should be moniterd and investigated very,very closely.Praise the lord and pass the collection plate.

Exactly. This is just a silly fight between people who don’t like each other’s ideology. It is no more interesting than that. 

 why is MM so obsessed with people they don’t like?

The Obama Media will tell you that the Democrat’s WAR ON RELIGION is ludicrous.
Know where THAT LIE is coming from – Media Matters!

Watch what Obama DOES…not what he lies about in his pretty speeches.

Marxists hate religion, that’s been true throughout history, and it’s no different with this Administration.

11-06-12 — Stop Obama’s War On Religion!

 What a textbook example of intransigent indoctrination Lee.
What if FOX told you the Giants won the Superbowl? Would you simply not believe it?

 
If Fox News wasn’t a credible news organization,they wouldn’t be kicking ass on all the other networks….but you still look stupid with your comment.

 Not grant discussion, but here:

http://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/2011/08/03/media-matters-puts-tax-exempt-status-in-jeopardy/

 lol
They coordinate SMEAR campaigns in conjunction and collusion with this corrupt White House – that’s what the whole Expose is about!

If this were Bush, you Lefty HYPOCRITES would be calling for his impeachment, who are you phonies kidding?

Grow Up!

 You’re defending Media Matters. Did they pay you to post?

Fox News would be nowhere near the top of the ratings if they weren’t so adept in rounding up the nation’s Hillbilly audience!!

Saying that the Daily Caller is a crap site is not the same as defending Media Matters.

Don’t you have a Palin thread to post on with your usual drivel?

I don’t need Fox News to tell me who won the Super Bowl or for them to explain how Republicans are truly looking out for the nation’s interests!!

Stories like this should be reported without saying who the perps were and for what administration. The Left can’t formulate an opinion unless they have those details.

And?  What does this prove, other than it is a poorly run organization?

They could spend all their money on Pop-Tarts for all I care.

As a general rule these media watchdogs (regardless of ideology)are pretty much useless.

Insert media outlet and say that it is biased because of X, Y, and Z.

I am not concerned with bias as much as I am with sheer laziness on the part of so many media outlets.

It is the laziness of the media in general that bothers me.  Take the brouhaha over the recent 9th Circuit decision on Prop. 8.  It was over 120 pages and yet you had people opining on it within 15 minutes of the decision.  It reminded me of when Homer said, “Let’s go home kids.”  When Bart and Lisa point out that they are home he replies, “That was fast.”

i would like to take gretchen here, bend her over my knee, spank her. and tell her what a naughty little girl she has been…. isnt that what the foxettes are for?  mind masturbation for the fat white old guy.  thats the fox demographic folks. over 60+ white, who only get free cable at the 55+ condo complex they live in…  forget what she’s saying, just enjoy her decolletage….

HEY NOOOOOOOORBIIIIIIT  STOP AND LOOK OVER HERE YES I AM THE DOT ON THE HORIZON AND THE TOPIC IS THIS WAY, and you need to think a little harder NOT EVERYTHING is about the President and no one see’s any federal troops occupying churches, if there is a WAR ON RELIGION it will be a war of liberation FROM religion.

Do you see soldiers or insurgents at all the churches? NO

Is Tucker Carlson a pundit toad who has been shall we call it a little PARTISAN seeing a conspiracy everywhere kind of guy? YES

Is this on FNC and right wing media sites? YES

Has the Vatican asked the UN for Peacekeepers to be deployed in America to protect religion? NO

Are you being a very strident partisan? YES

Yay, Tucker Carlson is invited to lie every day now on FixedNews! The coordinating is quite impressive. It even includes changing screen headlines about the person David Brock without any proof or evidence. Um, can I have a verified quote by Brock?

Somebody didn´t pay attention during Bible lessons – Thou shalt not bear false witness, huh.

Meanwhile MMFA got a nice book coming about FOX. Don´t expect FixedNews to come up with a defense of their work beyond the pathetic smear attempts of a Tucker Carlson or the foreseeable mentioning of the name Soros.

 FNC dose not have the numbers of NBC, CBS, ABC, THE NY TIMES, or even THE PBS NEWSHOUR for that matter, they have ratings in a partisan TALK FORMAT so their ratings have nothing to do with actual news, its talk cable ratings, And if they are SOOOOOO credible why do they always claim a republican caught in any wrong doing is a democrat? Not very credible to get a known party affiliation wrong.

 which is why flux is running this down the throats of the goobers watching all week. its been on the hit list all week on their shows…. david brocks book must have some good stuff in it. as fox has an early copy for sure, and roger ailes knows whats coming…………………………. fluxfox….

 He wants to be a man of color just not a color found in nature.

 OOM PA LOOMPAS ATTACK. is his new battle cry.

The guy is desperate to drive traffic to his site and FNC is helping him. If he really had something……wait just one mo….He has never really had anything has he?

 Beware the little guy.

 Sarah got a restraining order, and yes Tucker Carlsons Daily Caller sit is crap, my god they tried to get away with claiming electric cars produce more green house gases than gasoline powered cars citing an alleged study from China that never was.

Does anyone really believe that little Tucker???

Be careful there your baiting the troll, it is a nasty very partisan troll who thinks that when Media Matters gets a copy of the morning press briefing *like everyone else does including the Daily Caller and FNC* its a sinister conspiracy with the White House.

Besides that YOUR RIGHT.

 Emma you have a stalker, keep your mace ready.

 When a republican gets rejected by the people FNC and the conservative side of K STREET seems to be there in a flash with contracts don’t they?

 I thought George Will WAS testosterone deficient already and had his blood removed and replaced with TURBO CHARGED ELECTRIC ATOMIC OIL.

So, you’re saying you envy Media Matter’s success?

You can tell how legitimate this story is by the numbers of networks reporting on. Scores, I say: “Scores.” Well, maybe a bit less.

Is that why Dershowitz is telling Obama to either distance himself from what he considers neo-Nazi rhetoric from MM or lose his support? Sounds like a little more than monitoring is going on since Dershowitz says MM articles are used on hate sites.

Dershowitz is a lunatic. He thinks everyone who doesn’t support Israel is anti-semetic. He may yet succeed a bit by using this card. Quite potent sometimes.

Electric cars are powered by magic. The electricity is generated by mystical pixies.

You mean all the networks implicated in the media matters scandal?
http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fvideo.foxnews.com%2Fv%2F1450365897001%2Fmedia-matters-manipulating-headlines&h=HAQHuqB7-AQE-Ml7nYPWsk0X2tVYLVxmDy3wW9_N4tixb6Q

Maybe someone should sue FOX news?

Dumpkoff, you dont think for a second FOX would run with this without vetting it.

Even the tards no better,If there was the slightes innacuracies Maddow would be foaming at the mouth and you know it. That would be the headline

“FOX news smears innocent man”

Why arent you watching he real news on msnbc?

What ? Investigation? Fuk yeah lets investigate all of this, clearly someone is lying.

Again, someone should sue. Why arent they? I mean they have made every other vile disgusting attack ossible on every single person who has ever been on FOX..

WEAK. The secret is out who writes the stories on MSNBC, that would be Valerie Jarret, whats her party affiliation? You guys screwed and you know it.

Sometimes they quote studies…

You man the networks that are implicated?

http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fvideo.foxnews.com%2Fv%2F1450365897001%2Fmedia-matters-manipulating-headlines&h=HAQHuqB7-AQE-Ml7nYPWsk0X2tVYLVxmDy3wW9_N4tixb6Q

Maybe someone should sue them..Or at least call them racist.

Its a 3 part deal, and uh, Im not sure why MSNBC hasnt called them for BS? Rachal Maddow skipping a chance to hammer FOX news, OK sure.

Yeah, even the ones that are proven fake. Even the ones they admit are fake are left up there, for posterity I guess.

Oh wherd you guys go… They published the donor list.

Its called paybacks a biytch. Media Matters has done a FINE job slandering FOX in every possible disgusting way for years, all disproven now. Oh my and the white house AND MSNBC both implicated? Wow really someone should refute this.

They are left wing hit men who accuse anyone the president doesnt like of being a racist(usually but thats the standard one) They lie, they doctor video and they work for POTUS. Theyve ben trying to discredit FOX for years, thats why uninformed people think “FOX lies”

yes they did.

Oh we are still playing the scum bag card…LOL truth is out now.

Oh we all do, we all do.

Howe would you like to wake up in the morning, turn n the tv and find out that your a child molester. With faked video to boot. then the next day its your mom on tv, then your brother. Thats what they do.

They haven´t. Get over yourself. They are just “quoting”.
