The Gamechanger Salon

Katrina vanden Heuvel

There always been a half joke about how many of the lefty journalists all seem to be using the same White House talking-points memo in their reportage. Often on talk radio one will hear a montage of audio clips where dozens of these yokels are saying essentially the same thing ... even using the same phraseology. Now possibly comes the reason .... apparently there is what amounts to an under-the-radar club of such "journalists" who are coordinating their messages to push their political agendas.

This secret society is called the Gamechanger Salon and it contains up to one thousand members ... including such predominant media names as Katrina vanden Heuvel. To read the sordid details of this distressing disclosure please read: EAG News Story.

These poltroons even coordinate their messages through group e-mails and social media. I don't know what ethics they teach at the Columbia School of Journalism, but I would hope that producing a propaganda avalanche is not part of the curriculum there. I am not just surprised at this revelation ... I am outraged. I think that any media personality who is even peripherally associated with this cabal should be stripped of his/her reporter's credentials and exposed for the frauds that they are. And yes, if such an association exists on the right, I would suggest they same remedy.

“American journalism (like the journalism of any other country) is predominantly paltry and worthless. Its pretensions are enormous, but its achievements are insignificant.” -- H.L. Mencken

Leaning Right

I was surprised to see that both lefties, Chris Matthews and Katrina Vanden Heuvel, this morning on Morning Joe appeared to be moving away from supporting President Obama and towards backing Mitt Romney in the next Presidential sweepstakes. (Mika Brzezinski is still a solid rump-swab for The Barry.)  And these are not the only paleo-turncoats I've noticed among Democrats.  Increasingly, Obama's support appears to be slipping within his previously-solid base.  This is surprising, even shocking, to me ... and the question is why?

All I can come up with is that, even though such people would prefer to have the U.S. become a Socialist (or even a Communist) country, they, nevertheless, still want to have a country.
