Media See No Indictment of Web Journalism in ThinkProgress Smear

Surprise, surprise.

So when Andrew Breitbart put up a video of Shirley Sherrod puting her words out of context, the left-wing media was all up in arms about the dishonesty and lack of journalistic integrity (no one seemed to notice her husbands racist remarks just a few days later) and except for a handful on the left (astonishingly the New York Times among them) no one is apparently interested in seeking the truth to the false claims of ThinkProgress smearing the Chamber of Commerce (MSNBC's Chris Tingle is even going so far as to claim the CoC is purposefully sending American jobs overseas-which is pretty much the exact opposite of their given fuction-to, I guess, crumble the CoC from the inside) The CoC's goal is - and always has been - to assist American companies to grow their businesses. If they all contract to zero employees in the United States, the Chamber of Commerce would become extinct.

When the Sherrod case hit the airwaves, that's all that the MSM could bring themselves to talk about. How FOX News and Breitbart were solely responsible for the "outrage."
But now with the left going into overtime with unfounded accusations (with the CoC and either party not obligated to release the origins of their funding, as in this case) of the Chamber of Commerce giving donations to Republican campaigners from foreign sources, none of them seems all that interested in the truth. Once again, all the left is concerned about are accusations. No facts to back them up, but in the world of the lefty journalist, that doesn't matter-and it hasn't for decades, not since Watergate.

NewsBuster's Lachlan Markay has a terrific reminder of the left's hypocrisy and ongoing transparent agenda.

Really, how does the agenda of the lefty media not change after nearly 50 years without these people losing sleep at the smears and lies they've spread. Even when it's to champion one of their own?
