It's important to remind ourselves from time to time that the mainstream media isn't exactly new to deceptive reporting — all the way down to bald-faced lies and forgeries — for the sake of their Leftist agenda.The Reagan Diaries, entry for Tuesday October 5, 1982:
[…] C.B.S. & Wash. Post described my trip to Ohio as a chilly reception. That is blatant falsehood. I've never been greeted with greater warmth and enthusiasm. I think their bias toward the Dems. is showing(hardcover edition, page 104)
The remarkable thing with Ronald Reagan, and his diaries, is that he writes in a most down to earth and straight to the point way. If he used "blatant falsehood" to describe CBS and the Washington Post, you can safely assume this was no overstatement.

Max Blumenthal , a winner of the USC Annenberg Online Journalism Award, has a hellaciously bad piece of hackery in the Huff Po on Toby Keith's song "Beer for my horses".
The song is about rough, frontier justice for evildoers, but Blumenthal posts pictures of blacks and Jews being lynched and tries to equate the two.
The moral is: If you ever get any Blumenthal on your shoes, wipe it off right away before the stench overpowers you!

Having seen Reagan as he passed through Ohio on his whistle stop tour, at the tender age of 10, I can confidently vouch for his rousing turn out of support in that state.

Feel free to get your black gun, Alaskan. More power to you, but I'm a girl, so mine will be pink. ;-)
