Dallas Morning News Bias – November 21, 2013

Busy day! Just look at what The News ignores:
NOT NEWS TO THE DALLAS MORNING LIBERAL LEADER
1) Obama crashes to record-low 37 percent approval in CBS/WSJ poll; 61 percent disapprove of Obamacare
2) CBS poll: 84 percent of Dems want health law changed or repealed
3) Second wave of health cancellations looms
4) Texas ‘navigator’ taped conspiring to release private data
(James O’Keefe: doing the job our mainstream media just won’t do.)
5) Small business owner tells Congress ‘Obamacare is driving me to drink’
(But Sandra Fluke squealing for free birth control at last year’s mock hearing got first-class DMN treatment.)
6) Retailers brace for weakest holiday shopping since 2009
(Thanks, Obamacare!)
7) Tribune Co. cutting 700 jobs
(That’s The Chicago Tribune, The LA Times and six other papers — but Dear Leader’s economy is roaring, doncha know?)
8) North Texas drivers stopped, asked for saliva, blood samples
(Yeah, how could this possibly be news, guys?)
9) Three more ‘knockout’ attacks reported, this time in Philly
(This national story is under full blackout at The News — like the gang-rape by Austin illegal Continue reading “Dallas Morning News Bias – November 21, 2013”

NOT NEWS TO THE DALLAS MORNING LOW-INFO VOTER NEWS

2) Universities canceling student health plans due to Obamacare
3) Treasury forced to issue 1 trillion in new debt in first 6 weeks of FY2014

(DMN editors: Fast and Furious? What’s that?)

Dallas Morning News Bias – November 16, 2013

Gotta ask: 
As crazy as Dear Leader has been acting, is he simply seeking to provoke an incident — one that would allow him to come down hard on his opponents in the name of “homeland security,” or as Obamacare allows with its Ready Response Corps?
(Recall Pelosi marching through Capitol Hill protesters in 2010, just HOPING someone would do something stupid.) 
One Texas congressman has some interesting questions — (and they’re of NO INTEREST to The DMN.)
See below:
And:
How does Dear Leader “allowing” people to keep their plans one more year “fix” his saying, “If you like your plan, you can keep your plan?”

QUOTE YOU WON’T SEE IN THE NEWS’ SUNDAY TALKING POINTS
“[Obama’s] basically, I think, just creating chaos … Suddenly, ObamaCare has been turned into a policy that exists merely to protect people from substandard insurance plans. Have you noticed that? That’s the new talking point? When was that ever the point of this?”
— Democrat strategist Kirsten Powers, on Obama’s health law “fix”
