The Ever Vigilant and Unbiased Press Strikes Again!

The Ever Vigilant and Unbiased Press Strikes Again!

A fine example of the ever-vigilant and unbiased media was booed off the stage during his commencement address to Rockford College graduates.
"New York Times reporter Chris Hedges was booed off the stage Saturday at Rockford College’s graduation because he gave an antiwar speech.
Two days later, graduates and family members, envisioning a “go out and make your mark” send-off, are still reeling."

Hedges began his abbreviated 18-minute speech comparing United States’ policy in Iraq to piranhas and a tyranny over the weak. His microphone was unplugged within three minutes.

Voices of protest and the sound of foghorns grew.

Some graduates and audience members turned their backs to the speaker in silent protest. Others rushed up the aisle to vocally protest the remarks, and one student tossed his cap and gown to the stage before leaving."

Of course, these are the people we rely upon to provide us with a clear eye upon events we cannot see ourselves. And of course, his extreme left-wing views would never color his reporting.
