A number of journalists and news organizations made it clear during this past election season that they will not adhere to journalistic standards, but will do whatever it takes to promote their own agenda. As a citizen, I plan to do whatever it takes to limit my contribution to those journalists and news organizations, meaning minimizing my "purchases" of their products (magazines, newspapers, books, television shows, etc.) Here's My Blacklist:
Peggy Noonan
Oprah
Harry Smith
Tom Joyner
Tom Brokaw
Katie Couric
CBS News
Juan Williams
Colby King
Chris Mathews
MSNBC
Kathleen Parker
NBC News
Good Morning America
Gwen Ifil
The Washington Post
(I never really read the NY Times, but if I had they would be on this list).
I hear that the management at Fox News has directed their reporters and commentators to treat President-elect Obama with respect, as if telling the truth about a Presidential candidate is being disrespectful. Well, I've got news for Fox News management, if their organization goes the way of the organizations and journalists I've blacklisted, they will end up on the top of my list. Strange how Fox News' management is about to follow the same path that lost the Republican Party the election. Do people ever learn?
