American Chronicle: Media Black Out Downing Street Minutes

With the revelations that came out recently with the Downing Street memo, one of the most interesting things about it to me was that no one that I talk to outside of the left leaning bloggers on the internet seems to have even heard of it. This article points out how that can be possible. It's simply because no one in the media seems to give a shit. That's pretty fucking sad. This is documented evidence that our President lied to us, and not over something trivial, but over the reasons we went to war. And while that's not very shocking to me, his supporters ought to be a little bothered by that. The only thing that's sadder to me than the media silence is that I'm not sure anyone would care even if they did know about it. But that doesn't mean the media shouldn't fucking report it. And something this significant should at least prompt some questions of the President, he should at least have to tell us whether or not what is in it is true, or false, or out of context, or something.

At least this should make one thing crystal fucking clear (not that it wasn't already to anyone with half a brain): The "Liberal" media is a myth created by the republican extremists and their allies in the conservative media.
