Missing the Perfect Storm

The mainstream media ignores a story tailor-made for them.

And on a related note, Ed Morrissey of Captains Quarters asks where The Elite Media Monoculture is regarding this story. I have to say that this is the most amusing aspect of this story, if one can call it amusing. Because as we all know, this is the kind of story just made for the modern day journalist who fancies himself a crusader for the poor and downtrodden. Except of course when the people doing the trodding are self-congratulatory Angry Leftists whose primary purpose in life is lashing out at all conservatives and Republicans and everything they stand for.

But note the deafening silence here as well as from the poverty pimps. The Elite Media Monoculture spent vast amounts of time and ink to laud the new network when it launched and it has done everything it can to keep a lid on the news of AirMoonbat's failing ratings and the economic disaster it has so quickly become. Now we have a real live scandal in which Rich White Leftists have stolen from poor widows and orphans and do we hear even a peep from The New York Times, CBS, The Washington Post or the other overlords of The Elite Media Monoculture? The answer is obvious. Only the alternative media has reported on this story, along with a few conservative newspapers like The Washington Times and a few others. But remember, there is no liberal media bias!
