CBS TV News: Housing Slump 'Forces' Pair to Open Whorehouse
We have seen it time and again; the MSM taking these relatively good economic times in which we live and spinning them into some sort of Depression era disaster as if things are really all bad. Well, the CBS station in New Rochelle, New York has decided that the so-called housing slump is now somehow "forcing" people to turn their homes into whorehouses! No kidding. Now, as far as this news…
NYT Admits Hsu Fund-Raising Scandal Not Being Covered by MSM
On September 7th we noticed that the scandal in the Democrat Party over illegal campaign donations was barely getting any coverage in the print media and the internet.

Joe no Longer American Soldier But an 'International' Operative?"
