Except in the MSM
By now you have almost certainly seen the photo below that ran today on the front page of The New York Post. The photo shows a number of soldiers posted in Iraq and who have a message for John Francois Kerry in response to his statement that American Soldiers in Iraq are just plain dumb and must have flunked out of school or something to end up where they are. Naturally the soldiers in Iraq have a few things to say about this.
In yesterday's post we mentioned that the New York Post is one of the few newspapers that has not only been able to avoid massive losses in circulation; it has actually picked up readers. The fact that they put this photo on their front page is part of the explanation for that fact. Meanwhile The Washington Post, which saw a decline of 3.6%, decided instead to run old stories about Tom Delay and Jack Abramoff.
It should be clear that the purpose of The Elite Media Monoculture here is not to report the news. If that were the case they would be running the photo above and asking veterans what they thought of Senator Kerry's remarks. No, the purpose here is to advance the leftist agenda. The decline in circulation which they are seeing across the board throughout dinosaur media is proof that the old tricks are not working any longer. The photo above has flown around the Internet at the speed of light. Everyone has seen it.
Just not on the front pages of Old Media.
