  • Re: Is The Media Bias? Here is Evidence of Bias

    Media bias is a perceived notion that certain press has and is pushing a viewpoint, instead of reporting news or airing programs in an objective way. That is the way I see it. Such bias often refers to media as a whole, such as a newspaper chain, or a given television or radio network, instead of individual reporters or writers of television ...

    On June 13th, 2007, I received a death threat from someone claiming to be a member of the US Intelligence community. What was my ''crime''? I blew the whistle on the election fraud of 2004.

  • Note to Dahlia Lithwick et al., re: "redacted."

    Dahlia (and others similarly situated -- at editors' desks and reporters' laptops)... I make humble request that you eschew use of the word ''redacted.''
