| Propaganda: The president has rewarded his campaign loyalists from MSNBC with an off-schedule West Wing meeting, where he´s given them new talking points to win the next battle over taxes. Yes, this state-press collusion is happening in your capital, not just Caracas or Havana. The lovefest between Obama and MSNBC toadies Lawrence O´Donnell, Rachel Maddow, Ed Schultz and Al Sharpton actually took place on Dec. 4. A White House spokesperson confirmed the president met with them and other "influential progressives" to discuss the "importance of extending the Bush middle-class tax cut" — not to mention mau-mauing Republicans against

Thanks for posting, as this didn´t get much mention last week. The conclusion, however, is foregone.

Pravda being "truth", and Izvestia meaning "news", brings to mind the remark by a Soviet wag. To wit: there is no Izvestia in Pravda, and no Pravda in Izvestia.

Is it too let in the day for a must read? The only problem with this article is that this has been a fact for a while now.

And in MSNBC there is no Izvestia either.

~~But what they lack in journalistic credentials they make up for in far-left ideology — which makes them eminently valuable to this president, who governs through economic envy and agitation.~~
Someone finally says it!

with all due respect still to WSJ ... the only ´real´ newspaper left in America is IBD.
this is a complex, complicated topic, and probably more subjective than not. Love Taranto, Henniger, DorothyL, Gigot ... but it is IBD carrying the fight singlehandedly. That´s because the marketplace and audience do not realize how far left they have been pushed already under fears of being called ´racist´ or ´regressive´.
When Barry Ritholz, the supposedly ´widely-followed´ financial blogger starts citing NPR ´reports´ of ´studies´ that this present GOP House of Representatives is the most extreme since Lincoln´s 1860 COngress... well you know that propaganda is flying so thick they don´t care about any professional standards ... and no one is calling out the propaganda flowing out of Washington Post, NYTimes networks, etc. .....
It is worse than most understand or realize ...
The media/entertainment/academia do not realize thay have become willing enthuiastic old soviet-style Pravda-like narrative shapers.
FDR had a lot of super lefties and early stge bolshevik admirers ..... but they wanted to keep America America not make it into Europe (see Sen Paul Simon) .... Team 44 wants to go beyond present-day Europe. No one understands what just place this past election ... not Chris Christie, Bloomberg, the media, nor the GOP ... and least of all the sheep of the Northeast and West Coasts.

What we learned on November 6 is that MSNBC is more influential than Fox News. MSNBC was allowed to function openly as an arm (or tentacle) of the Obama campaign, other Obama campaign operatives were allowed to moderate the debates, and hardly any mention of this corruption was made. Hats off, MSNBC, you got away with murder. And, because no one in the GOP will name names and call media corruption/crimes to account, you are still on the air.

Perhaps Obozo asked them to nominate one of their MSNBC miscreants to be the next CZar of Propaganda enforcement.
I think they also gave him the idea of minting 2 platinum trillion $$ coins to raise the debt level on his own. Probably with his ugly mug on the coin as well.

Relatively small,preaching to the choir station. Their numbers don´t even compare to Fox.
You know RFK jr,who possibly hung his ex wife is out there blaming Fox for the country´s division,I guess because they don´t toe the Obama propaganda line.
Obviously,it´s Obama who´s dividing the country along racial and class lines.
You have one group of people who have to work into their 60´s to retire while you have another group who can retire at age 17 simply by having an out of wedlock baby.Yet this is fair in the left´s world.
Even if you agree that it´s the government´s job to help people,help is a far cry from a parachute through life.

The Senate’s pending immigration bill will pave the way for the arrival of 46 million legal immigrants over the next 20 years, increase the federal debt in the same time period and shrink Americans’ average wage, according Alabama Republican Sen. Jeff Session’s critical reading of two new reports on the pending immigration reform bill provided by the Congressional Budget Office. But Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio, the most prominent GOP advocate for the immigration reform bill, says the CBO reports are good news for Americans.

BERLIN — President Barack Obama is challenging Americans and Europeans not to become complacent even though the Cold War is over. Obama is speaking at Berlin´s iconic Brandenburg Gate nearly 50 years after John F. Kennedy´s famous speech in the once-divided city. Obama says there´s a temptation to turn inward now that barbed wire and concrete walls no longer separate East and West in Berlin. He says he´s returned to Berlin because the tests of our time require the same fighting spirit. He´s pointing to poverty and unemployment as ongoing challenges requiring the world´s

Today’s Morning Jolt features the Pentagon smacking down Secretary of State John Kerry, some politicians going on a showy diet, and then this easily overlooked development . . . Meanwhile, Back in Benghazi . . . Remember my story about the smuggling of shoulder-mounted anti-aircraft missiles in and out of Libya during that country’s civil war? Public reports indicate U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens was working on tracking those missiles when he was attacked and murdered in Benghazi. While the most lurid allegations of U.S. arms smuggling to Libya are not yet proven, the Obama administration

WASHINGTON -- Former Congressman Allen West says challenging Senator Marco Rubio in the 2016 Republican Florida primary election would be a daunting task. "That´s a pretty heavy lift, because you´re talking about running against a sitting senator, and then, of course, that creates that schism that the other side would love to see happen," said West, who appeared as a guest co-host on WMAL´s Mornings on the Mall Wednesday. West was pressed further by WMAL´s Larry O´Connor, who asked him directly if he would rule out a challenge against Rubio

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would win Florida against both Sen. Marco Rubio and former Gov. Jeb Bush in the 2016 presidential election, a new poll finds. If the election were held today, Clinton would top Bush 50 percent to 43 percent, and she would best Rubio 53 percent to 41 percent, according to Wednesday’s survey from Quinnipiac. Vice President Joe Biden would trail both of Florida’s Republican favorites. If he were the Democratic candidate, Bush would win 47 percent to 43 percent, and Rubio would narrowly defeat Biden 45 percent to 43 percent.

Former Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) said Wednesday that he may mount a primary challenge to Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) in their state´s 2016 U.S. Senate primary. West told station WMAL that he could run for Senate "if I see people that are not taking our country down the right path, if I see people that are not standing up for the right type of principles, and putting their own party politics before what is best for the United States of America." Asked directly in he would rule out challenging Rubio, West responded, "Chirping... chirping... chirping."

A group of whistleblowers, including a number of aviation experts, have come forward in a new documentary to claim that the official explanation for the crash of TWA Flight 800 was wrong and a gas tank explosion did not bring down the flight off the coast of Long Island 17 years ago. However, the six whistleblowers, all part of the original investigation team, stopped short of saying the plane was shot down. Flight 800, a Boeing 747, had just taken off from JFK airport with 230 people aboard on July 17, 1996 enroute to Paris when it exploded

An attorney whose firm represents two Benghazi whistleblowers said Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, lied to the Senate when he said there was never a “stand down” order during the Benghazi attack on Sept. 11, 2012. “What was fascinating is that he explained his lie to them,” Joe DiGenova, an attorney representing one of the whistleblowers, told CNSNews.com. “He actually said they were sent to Tripoli. They were needed in Benghazi,” said DiGenova, a former U.S. attorney, now with the Washington firm of DiGenova & Toensing.

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

As NewsBusters reported last week, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin called out vulgarian comedian Bill Maher for referring to her Down Syndrome son Trig as "retarded." On ABC´s The View Monday, co-host Barbara Walters astonishingly defended Maher saying, "I don´t think he intended it to be mean-spirited" (video follows with transcript and commentary): WHOOPI GOLDBERG: At a recent standup show in Las Vegas, comedian Bill Maher apparently called Sarah Palin’s five-year-old developmentally-challenged son Trig retarded. And Sarah blasted him on Twitter as a bully. Is that, is it, is he a bully? Is he a bad, what is he?

Charlie Rose last night asked President Obama his new Syria policy. The president first objected to it being called a new policy. "I´m not sure you can characterize this as a new policy. This is consistent with the policy that I´ve had throughout," he said. Obama then explained the goal is regional stability, and especially in Syria. "Really, what we´re trying to do is take sides against extremists of all sorts and in favor of people who are in favor of moderation, tolerance, representative government, and over the long-term, stability and prosperity for the people of Syria," said Obama.

Marco Rubio. Paul Ryan. The IRS. Illegal immigration. And fraud to the tune of billions.. Now there’s a combustible mix. Let’s start with the IRS, illegal immigration and fraud. We’ll come back in a minute to Senator Rubio and Congressman Ryan. For those who came in late, a year before the IRS scandals burst onto the scene in early May of 2013, an alert investigative reporter for WTHR-Indianapolis (Channel 13), Bob Segall by name, produced a stunning piece of journalism. Segall’s video report is found here and we will quote from his story for the basics.
