Bozell: Media Rigging 2012 Election, Worst Liberal Bias In 25 Years
ALEXANDRIA,
VA –Media Research Center President Brent Bozell, along with more than 20 conservative
leaders and media personalities, has publicly called out the liberal media for
their deliberate and calculated attempts to rig the 2012 presidential election
in favor of Barack Obama.
“We
have never witnessed a more brazen and complete attempt by the media to decide
the outcome of a presidential election. For
25 years, the Media Research Center has been documenting liberal media bias
daily. During that time, we have covered
seven presidential elections including this one. We have never seen it this bad. The media have decided to re-elect Barack
Obama and have employed countless distortions, misrepresentations and outright
lies as their means to that end,” Bozell said.
Bozell
informed the heads of ABC News, CBS News, CNN and NBC News in a letter
co-signed by conservative leaders and media personalities including Ed Meese, Rush
Limbaugh, Jenny Beth Martin, Matt Kibbe, Mark Levin, Laura Ingraham, and Tony
Perkins that they are urging the members of their respective organizations to
switch off the liberal media:
“We
the undersigned – representing millions of Americans from our respective
organizations – are now publicly urging our members to seek out alternative
sources of political news in order to make an intelligent, well-informed
decision on November 6. It is time the American people turn you who are
offending off, once and for all. You have betrayed their trust,” Bozell wrote.
Within
that letter the MRC’s News Analysis Division provided a list of the most
egregious examples of the media’s lopsided coverage during this election season.
