According to the latest Gallup poll, 60% of Americans distrust the mainstream media. There was no word on what’s wrong with the other 40%.
In other news, during his appearance at the UN in New York, President Barack Hussein Obama spoke out strongly against “those who slander the prophet of Islam”.

On Obama's further demeaning of America and the free world at the United Nations; it is not slander if it the truth that is spoken.
Slate and the Left is getting in on calling for throttling the 1st Amendment. These lunatics want to turn the country into a one giant gulag.

For some reason the MSM here in Britain this evening think we are remotely interested in seeing slippery David Cameron address the United Nations. You could hardly escape him and I wonder how many of my fellow Brits still haven't rumbled what is going on, the vast majority I surmise.
I didn't give him much time but I think he said that the Arab Spring would ultimately lead to democracy in North Africa and the Middle East. I assume that he was talking about the same sort of democracy that we now have in Europe i.e. Marxist totalitarianism except that it will be Islamic totalitarianism.
This just goes to show that there is little to choose between Marxism and Islam and why they are not as strange bedfellows as they appear. It also undoubtedly heralds the creation of Eurabia, which will be much easier the more Europe becomes Islamic, which I presume is the next stage towards the world-wide totalitarian UN state.
If you analyze the Gallup data carefully, you will see that the other 40% is easy to explain...fully 58% of DEMOCRATS are satisfied w/the news media. Doesn't that decisively prove the point?
Interesting to note this fact was buried in the story about the poll. IOW, Gallup's own story about media bias...was badly biased.
