Understanding UK Media Bias Against Palin And McCain
BIAS at the BBC? Of course. Bias in the Guardian. Natually. Only nutters vote for Palin and McCain:
“That is the safe sex message of all time. Use a condom or become a Republican!”
In the light of this pig-ignorant comment coming out of Russell Brand, a so-called comedian at the recent MTV awards, some of you might be wondering if his opinion is shared by others in the UK.
Considering the incredibly biased coverage of the whole election by outlets such as the BBC and the Guardian, it is no wonder I encounter such ignorance about Gov. Palin. What is most appalling is the fact that many media outlets in the UK seem to be perfectly happy to repeat all the Daily Kos-spewed lies about her as if they were fact.
Comment pages online are filled with people repeating the various lies word for word. One finds oneself posting the link to the Palin debunk site.
It is not like they have to look very hard at her to work up a lather in their urban, patronizing minds. All the things that make Sarah Palin attractive to Middle America are the things that disgust the media establishment in the UK. In fact, they could not quite believe the outcry after Obama’s claim that Midwesterners cling to their “guns and God” when times are hard.
The left-wing media stymies the debate…

Yes you are sort of right there are many things about Sarah Palin that really upset the population of the UK, perhpas the biggest thing being she is utterly stupid and proud of it. Is she really the besy hope for the GOP?

Sarah is on the rise now. She does not have McCain and his handlers to keep her down. Her star is on the rise now. She is Reaganesque and stands for freedom.
After 4 years of socialism under Obama, American will turn to her to set them free.
Obama’s first 60 days as President have been a mess. He is Carter II.
Sarah can only benefit from this.

You are exactly right, Palin was savaged with lies, smears, and distortions. Fortunately, it isn’t working so well any more. Right after the election polls found that her favorability rating was 49 percent, at the end of January her favorability numbers had risen to 52 percent, despite the 24/7 carpet bombing of her that has continued since the election. Next month Palin will appear at two events, both of which are expected to be maximum capacity, and much more widely attended than in previous years. As she travels around the country over the next several months her numbers will continue to rise at a time that 0bama’s numbers will continue to decline.
