Media ignores Obama's socialist past

Jim Brown - OneNewsNow - 10/13/2008 10:05:00

AMA conservative media analyst says the mainstream media is not only downplaying Barack Obama's connection to former domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, but also choosing not to report on the Democratic presidential nominee's past membership in a socialist organization.



Bob Knight of the Culture and Media Institute believes the media are so busy examining the GOP presidential ticket of John McCain and Sarah Palin, hoping to uncover some dirt, that they are not looking into Obama's questionable connections, including that with former Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers. Knight contends the media are trying to portray Ayers as a "rehabilitated" terrorist whose bombing of the Pentagon and the U.S. Capitol was merely a "youthful indiscretion."

"Ayers is still involved in radical efforts to socialize into left-wing views beginning in kindergarten," Knight says. "That's what he does as an education expert; he's by no means reformed."

The media, according to Knight, is also attempting to cover up the fact that Obama was endorsed by and also a member of a political party established by the Democratic Socialists of America. "When a candidate is revealed to have had ties to a far-left or far-right party, that should be news," he adds. "The fact that Obama has been linked to this socialist party would be of interest to most Americans, which is why the mainstream media are suppressing that fact."

While running for the Illinois State Senate, Obama signed a contract with the Chicago "New Party," which was established by the Democratic Socialists of America.
