+ + + MEDIA RESEARCH CENTER + + MRC NEWS REPORT FOR JULY 2, 2008 + + From the Desk of: Douglas C. Mills, Executive Vice President 7/2/2008 xxxxx, The recent Supreme Court ruling striking down a ban on handgun ownership in Washington, D.C., touched off a maelstrom of negative media reports about how the ruling would lead to more gun violence. Really? The 32-year ban on handguns in our Nation’s Capital was one of the strictest, yet the District has been widely labeled "the murder capital of the country". Why didn't the media analyze that? For the full Culture and Media Institute report: http://www.mrcaction.org/r.asp?U=8733&RID=16005272Just after the ruling, The N.Y. Times used a misleading statistic to bolster their argument. "Thirty-thousand Americans are killed by guns every year -- on the job, walking to school, at the shopping mall. The Supreme Court on Thursday all but ensured that even more Americans will die senselessly with its wrongheaded and dangerous ruling striking down key parts of the District of Columbia's gun-control law." The Times failed to mention that nearly half of the 30,000 deaths are suicides. The paper also didn’t look at how many of those homicides were the result of self-defense. Instead, the Times, like its liberal network counterparts, lamented that the "far-right" court got it wrong, setting the stage for more violence and death.

HT to Ninjamommy for this one. For those of us who are in the know about the true evil of the cult that calls itself IslaM, THIS comes as no suprise. If you weren't aware of what's going on there, you're in for a shock. For muslims, this is just another ogre in the corner they refuse to acknowledge. You cannot reform Islam. There is nothing of God in it. By all it's tennants, it is the advisary of God and a tool of Satan. Go look here and see just how "peaceful and tollerant" Islam truly is. http://www.time.com/time/asia/photoessays/laskar_jihad/

 GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR A teacher, a coach, and a student have religious freedoms stripped away April 21, 2008 The rights of Christians are under attack again! Consider what has happened just in the last week: - In New Jersey, East Brunswick High School officials told football coach Marcus Borden he cannot kneel and bow his head while members of his team have a student-led pre-game prayer. (source)
- In Wisconsin’s Tomah Area School District, a teacher refused to give a student identified only as A.T. a grade on an art project because his work included "John 3:16" as well as "A sign of love." However, Buddha, Hindu and sorcerers are considered “approved” forms of art by the school. (source)
- In Mt. Vernon, Ohio, school leaders told teacher John Freshwater he must put his Bible out of sight when students are in his room. Mr. Freshwater has refused to do so. He has had a Bible on his desk for the past 18 years. (source)
Our religious freedoms are slowly being taken away, mainly because Christians have not taken a stand! People of faith are being forced to remain silent while other religions are accepted in the name of “tolerance.”
| Take Action! | | Join AFA in expressing appreciation to the two teachers and student mentioned above for their bold stand. Despite overwhelming pressure, Marcus, A.T. and John are standing firm in defending our rights. Sign our “Petition of Appreciation!” Help us gather one million signatures supporting these three individuals for standing strong for our religious freedoms. AFA will present a Plaque of Appreciation to each of them, which will include your name and state (no address). |
Douglas Mills Executive Vice President Media Research Center ++ Exclusive FREE Special Report for MRC Action Team Members. Click here for more: http://www.mrcaction.org/r.asp?U=5747&RID=16005272Soaring oil prices have Americans cringing at the pump and journalists pointing the finger of blame at big oil companies. But is big oil really to blame? MRC's Business and Media Institute just published a new study entitled "Crude Coverage," that identifies the true culprit and faults the liberal media for missing the mark. Click here to discover who is really to blame for the oil crisis and what the U.S. can do to fight back: http://www.mrcaction.org/r.asp?U=5748&RID=16005272Given the skyrocketing gas prices and forecasts of a $4.00 per gallon summer, this latest BMI report both captivated and angered me. That the liberal media have all but ignored OPEC's role--and have instead chosen to go after the easy target of American oil companies is irresponsible and misleading. As a consumer, you need to know the truth. You need to know when Hugo Chavez admits publicly that he wants to keep oil prices high to damage the U.S. economy! You should know why OPEC, an organization formed in part to secure "fair and stable prices for petroleum producers," fails to follow its own mandate. And where are the journalists telling the real story to the American people? That's why this "Crude Coverage" is such an exceptional piece of work and one that I hope every member of our MRC Action Team takes the time to read and pass on to friends and family. Americans deserve the truth about the oil crisis and it can be found right here. Click to access this exclusive, free report: http://www.mrcaction.org/r.asp?U=5749&RID=16005272Sincerely, Douglas Mills Executive Vice President Media Research Center P.S: Again, after reading "Crude Coverage", please pass it on to your friends and family. http://www.mrcaction.org/r.asp?U=5750&RID=16005272
Here's another update on the Communist Proppaganda Rag ..... er, I mean the NY Times Courtasy of MRC + + + MEDIA RESEARCH CENTER + + MRC NEWS REPORT FOR MARCH 5, 2008 + + From the Desk of: Douglas Mills Executive Vice President
3/5/2008
Confirming MRC findings, a just released study by the Center for Media and Public shows that liberal media bias in this election cycle continues unabated. According to the study, as cited by Fox News Channel's Brit Hume, positive news coverage of John McCain went into a negative freefall the closer he drew to winning the GOP nomination.
While this may not be a surprise, the disparity of negative coverage between the candidates is nothing short of shocking!
As reported by Hume, "McCain's media fortunes have taken a dramatic turn for the worse since early January," tumbling 67 percent from a high of 97 percent positive to 30 percent.
Conversely, Barack Obama, despite a recent slip, is still receiving twice the positive coverage as McCain (67 percent); while Hillary Clinton stands at 57 percent.

Global Warming skeptics are getting the cold shoulder from news organizations that have decided the global warming is a fact and any dissenting arguments are to be squashed.
On those increasingly rare instances where opposing opinions are expressed, they are almost always de-valued and undermined with negative buzz words like "cynics" and "deniers."
In a new Special Report, "Global Warming Censored," the Business & Media Institute analyzed 205 network news stories about "global warming" or "climate change" between July 1, 2007, and Dec. 31, 2007. They discovered that for every global warming skeptic appearing on air, an average of 13 proponents (CBS led the way with a ratio of 38 to 1) were mentioned or interviewed.
Just as amazing, only 20 percent of Global Warming stories ever bothered to mention opposing arguments!

+ + + MEDIA RESEARCH CENTER + + MRC NEWS REPORT FOR FEBRUARY 6, 2008 + + From the Desk of: Douglas Mills, Executive Vice President 2/6/2008 The liberal media are falling all over themselves speculating a potential Democratic "Dream Ticket" of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. ABC News was so taken by the idea, they actually flew up a graphic while anchor Charles Gibson insisted that the "Dream Ticket" idea has been "on many people's minds." Really Charles, or is it just on the minds of liberal news anchors desperate to create a buzz? A closer look suggests the latter. "Good Morning America" co-anchor Diane Sawyer, seemed to come unhinged when discussing the idea with George Stephanopoulos. After he admitted it was something he was thinking of "for most of the year," Sawyer emphatically begged Stephanopoulos to bet that the "Dream Ticket" would happen. For the complete mrc.org CyberAlert report: http://www.mrcaction.org/r.asp?u=2574&rid=14576094Is the Reagan ideology finished? Is the conservative movement gone? Are Republicans finally embracing Democratic policy prescriptions while Rush Limbaugh and other conservative mouthpieces wither away? In Brent's latest column "McCain vs. Limbaugh", he spotlights the liberal media's rush to pronounce Rush dead on January 19. That's the day when John McCain won the South Carolina primary--setting liberal corks-a-popping as they "celebrated" the changing times, and how conservative voters had finally turned on Rush--signaling his demise... Well, according to Brent, the liberal celebration might be a bit premature.

AFA will not bow down to a threat from a liberal left-wing group The Rev. Barry Lynn, the executive director of Americans United for Separation of Church and State, has asked that the Internal Revenue Service investigate the American Family Association. Lynn says that AFA has violated IRS rules by distributing a voters guide.
For years, Rev. Lynn and his Americans United, along with groups such as the American Civil Liberties Union and People for the American Way, have used threats to silence Christians in an attempt to take away their First Amendment rights. The tragedy is that he has been successful in silencing thousands of ministers.
Let me make one thing clear to Rev. Lynn and his cohorts. We have no intention of bowing down to his threatening demands. Rev. Lynn is mistaken if he thinks his threat will scare this minister from exercising his First Amendment rights.
Lynn has also included a threat to churches. Trying to scare ministers from exercising their rights, Lynn said: "Any church that distributes these biased guides is risking its tax exemption and casting aside its integrity."
The AFA Voters Guide was developed by three constitutional lawyers and reviewed by three more constitutional lawyers following Rev. Lynn's threat. All agreed that the voters guide is perfectly legal.
The Alliance Defense Fund has offered to represent (free of charge) churches or organizations which distribute the voter's guide and encounter opposition from either Lynn or the IRS.
Take Action! - Show Rev. Lynn that his threats don't scare you by printing and distributing the AFA Voter's Guide. Click here.
- Forward this to family and friends.

Nope, I really don't see a pattern here to justify profiling, do you?
So, to ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport security screeners will no longer be allowed to profile certain people. They must conduct random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, secret agents who are members of the President's security detail, 85-year old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honor winning and former Governor Joe Foss, but leave Muslim Males between the ages 17 and 40 alone lest they be guilty of profiling.
Let's send this to as many people as we can so that the Gloria Aldreds and other dunder-headed attorneys along with Federal Justices that want to thwart common sense, get the message .
As the writer of the award winning story "Forrest Gump" so aptly put it, "Stupid is as stupid does."
Come on people wake up!!! Keep this going. Pass it on to everyone in your address book. Our Country and our troops need our support.
