Love Letter to Media Matters For America
by Dan RiehlDear Media Matters:
I just wanted to point out to you that the individual you allege is a “discredited activist,” James O’Keefe, has launched efforts that have led to ACORN losing financial support from taxpayers via Congress and ACORN was then forced into a re-organization, likely rendering them less effective. Additionally, NJ Governor Christie used a video from O’Keefe’s Project Veritas in his battle with the teachers union in New Jersey.
And now at least two senior NPR executives have lost their jobs, one actually lost two, given that Ronald Schiller is no longer going to work for the Aspen Institute – as a direct result of O’Keefe’s work. Oh, and by the way, NPR is now on the verge of losing its public funding.
Meanwhile, for all of uncle Georgie Soros’ money and Podesta’s political genuis, you have accomplished what, exactly, since you came to be? Oh, that’s right, … nothing really. Last time I looked, Fox, Rush, Levin, Hannity, Beck et al are all still on the air and going stronger than ever. So is the Tea Party movement, in point of fact. Also, a generally Conservative tide seems to be continuing to rise in America, as well as in Congress.
Now, go back to tickling your Elmos and crying in your wine coolers due to the damage currently being done to NPR. We’re not laughing with you, we’re laughing at you, clowns.
The many-times discredited activist is back with yet another “sting” video, this one of NPR executive Ron Schiller speaking with what he believes to be perspective donors from a Muslim education group (in reality, O’Keefe’s operatives merely pretending to be scary Muslims). According to a press release from O’Keefe’s group, the unironically named Project Veritas, the video shows Schiller “blasting Republicans, Tea Partiers, middle America, Jews, and Christians,” and “expose[s] the true hearts and minds of NPR and their executives.”

I'm thinking that right about now, there are some very unhappy, hairy legged, Birkenstock wearing, Brie eatin', Chardonnay sippin', sorry sumbitches in the Hallowed Halls of Academia.
Don't forget smelly! Like that good old toe jam smell. Where not talking that regular BO. You know BO:)
discredited by THEM…
It's all in who makes the headline. The same Media Matters didn't blink when a left wing activist fooled the erstwhile
Governor Walker by pretending to be a man he had never met on the phone. But they think there is grounds 'for an investigation' into his campaign finances.
Here you have NPR 'elites' dissing 80 million Americans as 'gun toting racists' and admitting that the NPR 'doesn't need public financing'.
Game, set, match…
Well said Dan Rhiel.
Ya and those are the good looking ones
OUCH!
One must admire O'Keefe's creativity.
He is kindly like a sane, sober version, of Charlie Sheen (before Sheen lost his luster).
Game, set, match?
I think O'Keefe has been playing chess, ever since he came onto the scene.
Meanwhile, his various quarry's have yet to master checkers.
Here's to the hope James O'Keefe will turn up incognito in the Hawaii Dept of Records.
"in reality, O’Keefe’s operatives merely pretending to be scary Muslims"
This, here….this is what I don't get. The sarcastic, 'scary'. Do the writers at Media Matters not read the news? Have they not read the leaders of Iran's words speaking to the need for the end of America and the West so as to ensure a Muslim world? Yet, those of us who take words like that seriously (particularly from a country frantically trying to develop nuclear weapons), we are mocked as being 'scared'?
In other parts of the world, Muslims are working feverishly to impose their Sharia law as dominant to the traditional laws of the country. They are working feverishly in America to use our own openness against us so as to ensure avenues of influence for themselves in our Government.
You take these all together……and the writers of Media Matters mock us with the words 'scary' Muslims?
I do not even begin to understand.
Great and I'm sure, accurate description.
perspective donors? I think MM meant prospective donors. Perspective donors… wonder what that would be.
It isn't what's real that's important. It's what they want us to believe.
I do not even begin to TRY to understand.
But I never fail to be insulted by their nonsense.
You are right.
They (Media Mutters) mock US at every opportunity.
But for some odd reason, they always want to be RED (playing checkers)
It's great to see another closeted 'liberal' bigot outed by O'Keefe.
I hope I live to see the day when government-funded media is finally laid to rest in America. Sorry to see you go, NPR… NOT!
Yeah.
Someone told them once, "better Red, than dead."
Which cable-news network is most popular? Here's the latest box score from 2009, the most recent figures available:
• Pay-TV companies had to pay 58 cents per month, per subscriber for the right to carry FOX News Channel.
• The carriage rate for DNCNBC? Sixteen cents per month, per subscriber – barely more than a quarter of what FOX News rakes in.
• Full disclosure: CNN got 51 cents… but CNN is not directly comparable to the other two because it's part of a package deal that includes HLN.
There's only one reason this happens in a market economy: Because FOX News is FOUR TIMES as popular as DNCNBC.
Suck it, Communists!
they will find out that they are one in the same…
When you are under the Reds you may as well be dead…
Of course Dan Riehl doesn't think a convicted criminal has lost credibility. Riehl himself is about as credible as the old Weekly World News. No wonder he scampers over to embrace dildo purveyor O'Keefe. A natural bonding of right wing turdflys.
Yes, I noticed that too. One more sign that they're idiots.
he wont find,……… anything.
I don't know what discredit James O'Keefe ever got, other than from the PCLs. As a matter of fact, I just sent project Veritas a little monetary contribution. Hahaha, PCLs, I'm laughing at you all, too.
The people Media Matters attacks work in the market place. Rush, Hannity, etc are free market entities that you can freely choose not to support by not listening to and not supporting their sponsors.
All the group O'Keefe has hurt are gov or gov funded organizations we all are forced to pay for through tax dollars.
Riehl is correct Media Matters has accomplished NOTHING in its years in existence. NOTHING. The only people who listen to Media Matters are the same hateful people over and over. Preaching to the choir.
But the big difference is the groups O'Keefe attacks are looters. They use government funds. Rush, Hannity, Beck use free will association.
And its funny for all the years Media Matters has been attacking these guys they have not swayed their audience at all. And you know why? Because Media Matters uses no convincing argument, reason or logic to do so. They employ the only communication means progressives know… verbally beat someone like a dumb pack animal until that person reacts.
I see NOTHING on Media Matters that is a reasoned argument meant to pull people over to progressivism. In fact NO progressive site ever has any arguments to convince people to become progressives. The ONLY message progressives have are "you suck, you're stupid, you're racist and we will MAKE you do things our way".
So O'Keefe has done more in his tiny career than Media Matters has done in its life time.
Funny, CNN doesn't think criminals have lost credibility, either. They got their Spitzer wagging his tongue for the 3 audience members.
"……..A natural bonding of right wing turdflys……."
Yep,…and can you imagine what more they could accomplish if,…….
they too were funded.
Jimmy has sure made it embarrassing to be a liberal,…ay 11,…?????
Go wash your Che T-shirt. Perhaps the stench rising from it is affecting your ability to reason.
O'Keefe hads eventually released the complete videos of his operations; as yet, none of the unedited video has done anything to change the initial; impression given by that initially released.
(Or have you not bothered to notice that?)
I love how Media Matters writers apparently don't know that some muslims execute homosexuals. Islam will NOT allow gay marriage.
Look at the Westburo Baptist Church. They are scorned and hated by the left (and right). They hate gays but never executed one and catch heat for it. Muslims in Iran HANG HOMOSEXUALS in the public square and the left defends Muslims.
Also I thought the left was for women's rights yet some Muslims bury women alive.
Its amazing how the left throws gays and women under the bus for partisanship.
I will now quote the Troll in Question from one day ago for the benefit of the Gentle Reader:
Case closed, blockhead!
Wisconsin tosses public unions…
Poor Leftists…under attack from all directions, and not a weapon in sight…
Not like they know how to use one…
So what is the difference between them and O'Keefe?
It's simple actually. The truth. No mater how hard they try to convince people otherwise, the truth is on our side. They accuse us of racism and violent rhetoric, but never can quite find any evidence of it. Then, we we turn the cameras on THEM and observe THEIR behavior, lo and behold, there it is. Those small details of facts, and truth always get in the way of pretty much any liberal concept.
I have come to love it when they accuse us of "X", because I know two things. One, we are innocent, and two they do "X" in abundance, and we will not expose them and their hypocrisy.
This was a great post. Great to point out which is more effective. Funny thing is… with ACORN, the Teachers Union, and now this NPR thing and plus the Planned Parenthood scandal… for us conservatives… it's nothing we didn't know before. We already knew all this… but it's just great to get it out in the open!
Poor widdle baby, attack the messenger who exposes your constant hateful bigoted illegal side. So used to being able to act with impunity while the world turned a blind eye to your hateful, bigoted evil ways. No longer. Citizens are doing the job journalists won't, and your dark side is showing more than it ever has.
Meanwhile, where's your outrage over the crimes broken by Rangle, Geithner, Obamugabe, etc.?
That's right. You're just an ass bag who doesn't stand for anything, you just joined a gang of hateful likewise ass bags, and you all run around being hateful ass bags together, devoid and empty at the core, but loud and abrasive despite being wrong. Must suck to live such an empty hollow life.
hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe
Page one, play one, in the manual for every Soros boi whore……
Right out the box discredit the message and smear the writer, nice job….little girl
Now…go crawl up on your sugar daddies lap and get your reward..
BTW
Don't forget the lotion
LOL.
When high ranking officials are fired or forced to resign the MSM can't easily ignore it. Ironic it was only a short time after Vivian Schiller asked to see proof of bias.
Go back to Fecal Matters. Fool.
Wow, it must really suck that you are losing so badly.
Hey Fecal Matters??? How's all that Soros money working out for you. FAIL
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
Media Matters is just a propaganda unit of the Democrat Party. Their stories are discredited daily. Why pay any attention to them? They aren't worth the time and trouble.
"We’re not laughing with you, we’re laughing at you, clowns."
I thought they were "assclowns"?
So Schilling did say what he said? Of course he did! It's obvious you don't have clue, much less a valid point to argue since you go straight to insults.
You can't make a point without using insults. In other words, you are an unintelligent ignoramus incapable of a unique thought of your own-and that's a verifiable fact, not an insult.
It wouldn't matter as much if it wasn't for the $450 Miliion bucks a year we're all paying for what's been billed as 'balance & All Things Considered'.
Defund 'em I say.
The intellectual being fooled by those he considers fools is the best part of this.
I like Brie, prefer red wine, shave my legs and pits on a regular basis, shower daily, prefer the $2 flip-flops from Wal-Mart and am very, very happy right about now.
Every time MMfA makes a pronouncement it's invariably the inverse of reality.
It will be right next to "The Book of Business Ethics" by Bernie Madoff and "10 Things I like about Bill" by Hillary Clinton.
Isn't AMERICA great ! Commies getting slaughtered with out spilling blood….
Dear Media Matters,
Should you lose ALL of your government grants, both direct and indirect (Tides Fdn, Joyce Fdn, Soros, etc) AND ALL of your other funding …gosh again, Tides Fdn, Joyce Fdn, Soros and other PAC's – where would ya be? What would ya have? Nothing more than an Internet name that would expire in time. I can only hope and pray that Congress does its job defunding all of this BS. May you not get one more of my dime. Much Love …
aaaaaaaaaammmennnnnnn!!!!! Feels good to be a little self righteous once in a while.
That blog made my day.
Cowboy… they were always there…. lol
When I hear the phrase "discredited activist" applied to a filmmaker, I think Michael Moore. For all the money that bozo has spent on his films, has he ever really made anything happen? O'Keefe & Co. have had dramatic instant results AGAIN. It's amazing.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
My kind of woman.
Dear Liberal Progressive Hack,
Let us use the standard that MMFA demands of evidence when they have to defend their side. There is no Video Proof of Dildos so if there is no Proof then the dildos do not exist.
Also the only people who have crapped any where are the much beloved Union Loving "Peaceful" Neo Hippies since the people on the Conservative side prefer bathing every day and being clean and using bathrooms not hall ways of government buildings.
Lets see the noble hero Ted Kennedy Left a Girl to drown in his car, Barack Obama admitted to using Cocaine in his Biography, Rick Sanchez ran over a Guy in his Car , Joe Biden is a Known Liar and Plagiarist , Bill Clinton lost his law License for Perjury so according to the Liberal Standard of excellence O'Keefe must be a Saint since He plea Bargained to a misdemeanor charge which btw did not involve wiretapping because despite "Fine Reporting" from Lame Stream Media even the FBI agreed that did not happen.
Good point. How much more sour can they be?
You make a very valid point.
As these progressives allign themselves with Muslims. They are too dumb to see they are making a deal with the devil. Do they actually believe that when all is said and done that Islamists will hold hands with them and celebrate gay weddings? LOL.
In their association and support of Islamists, progressives bring 'useful idiot' to a new level.
They will be the first ones stoned. LOL
Progressivism is all about control. And Islamists are all about submission.
The problem for the progressives is that their control is rooted in a feeling of intellectual superiority, knowing what is best for everyone. While the Islamists are about submission to what Allah says is best for them.
In the end, the progressives can't win.
Shhh. Don't tip them off.
Hugs and smooches. We love how they stand up take it like – um – like – um – never mind.
Poetic.
Don't forget patchouli smelling….
They still make wine coolers??? I thought they went the way of shoulder pads in womens' clothing. Oh well. What was the article talking about? Some leftist group that really has accomplished much of anything. What was that name again? Hmmm………MoveOn? No, not that loser organization. NPR? Mentioned but not the focus. Oh yeah, Media Matters.
they both see the world from the same perspective: anti-American.
"The many-times discredited activist is back with yet another “sting” video,"
and once again, some gang of lefties fall for it hook, line, sinker, rod, reel, boat, & motor.
the conservative wave is sweeping the world – the social dems in europe are being replaced.
people are on to the evils of progressivism with it's political correctness, so called fairness, it's predetermined outcomes and over regulation of our lives.
Progrssivism = Totalitarianism
Let me be the first to point out to them that psuedo intellect means "FAKE"…
WAAAAAH, uhWAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH, All the whos in whoville cried boo hoo hoo. Get over it, I'm not paying one more cent to the left wing rag of NPR, YOU can't force me to either. LOSER, move along.
I can never get enough of this, it is sweet.
The left are a dying dinosaur and they just cannot believe it.
And their type of media doesn't matter.
So are you saying that Mr. Schiller did not say those things? Are you saying that the video is not real? Is it your opinion that Mr. Schiller be given a pass because you agree with his premise?
