Journalism today=Lies today

As soon as I was old enough to understand the news, many, many years ago I listened to and watched the icons Walter Cronkite, Edward R. Murrow, Paul Harvey, and my two very favorites Huntley-Brinkley report the news honestly and fairly.

On the radio was this reporting journalist with a deep baritone voice. He was also reporting the news on the newsreels in the movie theater every week. Wish I could remember his name.

But more than just watching and listening I also believed in these truthful news journalists. When Cronkite, Murrow, Harvey, Huntley, and Brinkley spoke I listened with an open and respectful mind. I remember Cronkite broadcasting the news on the day J.F. Kennedy was slain.

At the end of Cronkite's career he became a little too over-opinionated for me, but I always held him in high esteem.  Walter Cronkite was a man of honest news reporting, and never viciously attacked any who disagreed with him, or the news that he personally didn't want to report.

I still listen to Paul Harvey's 1965 three-minute broadcast. I encourage everyone to listen to that broadcast and think about what the jihadist Muslim in our White House is doing to us now.

Back to journalistic reporting: With the advent of TV cable news Americans are flooded and inundated with "personal" news reporting. Yes, I'm a Fox News junkie, but it's not because I'm a conservative Republican. It's because Fox is the the closest to reporting the news fairly.

No, I don't agree with everything that is aired from that network. I'm not a big fan of O'Reilly, as I believe he's too self-centered for me, and I wonder if he's just in it for the ratings. After O'Reilly called Barry Soetero a patriot I cancelled my premium membership from his show.

But for heaven's sake take a look at the garbage that's spewing out from the likes of Dianne Sawyer, Brian Williams, Charlie Rose, and what cable TV is presenting from MSNBC and CNN. The line-up at MSNBC is a complete disgrace to ethical fair news reporting.

Really? Can Comcast and MSNBC really call Matthews, Maddow, Schultz, O'Donnel, and Sharpton ethical and fair journalists? These so-called journalists are really the National Inquirer of cable news. They are really nothing more than a "rag" magazine news outlet.

This cable outlet is known for nothing more than "carrying the water" for Barry Soetero. And should you voice a strong disagreement with them you can be sure you'll be labeled a racist by the likes of Matthews and Sharpton.

Starting with Sgt. Schultz the entire MSNBC network is avidly declaring that the Army soldiers that fought in Afghanistan along side of the AWOL deserter and traitor Bowe Burgdahl are liars and psychopaths.  

This rag magazine network is working hard to discredit these fine Army soldiers because they disagree with the trade that Barry made of releasing the five worst jihad radical Muslims from Camp Gitmo for one AWOL deserter that has declared himself a warrior of the jihad Taliban.

Yes, we all know that journalism and the dissemination of  news has changed dramatically with the advent of the cable TV and the Internet. However, one aspect should never change, and that is honesty, integrity, and truthfulness in reflecting news to the American people, and that is something that is sorely absent in many news networks today.

We have young men and women barely old enough to vote, even some too young to even enjoy a beer that volunteer to wear our military uniform. They go to a foreign country and swear an oath that they will even die to protect the rights and freedoms of Americans they don't even know.

These men and women are heroes through and through, unlike the treasonous AWOL traitor that abandoned his post; just walked off, and stated how much he hated the American military for their actions in the middle east.  Mr. Bergdahl should tell that to the 3,000 Americans that lost their lives on 9-11.

And yet the jihadist radical Muslim that resides in our White House released five of the most dangerous jihadist Taliban ruthless killers only to have this treasonous AWOL traitor returned to the U.S.  Of course the media along with Kerry, Holder, Pelosi, and Jarrett are saying good old Barry did the right thing. And While they spew this garbage these news networks are calling member of Bergdahl's unit liars and psychopaths.  Is this the way we treat our men and women who volunteer to fight and die for our rights and freedoms?

But please do not throw your hands up and give up folks. The great thing we do have left to us by our Founding Fathers is that in 146 days; yes that's only 3,504 hours we can take our first step to push back against this jihadist radical Muslim that lives in America's White House, and restore this country to the greatness it so richly had before he cam into office.

And that's Politics with Pete for today...God bless our country...and our troops.
