No ‘national dialogue’ needed? Lapdogs ignore Mich. union thuggery

Bingo. Standards and practices has become practicing double standards.
Media would be rushing to report on union violence–really, they would–but they’re still studying the crosshairs on Palin’s 2010 map.

Yesterday’s events in Michigan proved once again that the Fourth Estate is dead. As Twitchy reported, Democrat Rep. Geiss said “there will be blood” from the Michigan House floor about the right-to-work vote. Michigan Democrats gleefully and proudly tweeted it, then quietly deleted. Why? Because “there will be blood” resulted in union thuggery and violence. But, you wouldn’t know that, were you to watch only mainstream media. The lapdogs were far too busy once again burying bones for unions and Democrats to, you know, report on the news.
Today’s events in MIchigan make me very concerned about the civility of our political discourse. #thingsyouwonthearontvtonight.

There also won’t be any need for a “national dialogue,” just like after the FRC shooting.
As a commenter noted, the media is more interested in violence NOT perpetrated by the Tea Party than violence perpetrated by the left/unions

Exactly! Paging Brian Ross. Remember, he recently tried to link the Aurora theater shooting to the Tea Party. With dangerous and potentially fatal results. But, no big whoop! The Tea Party is evil; that’s his story and he is sticking to it. Even though all evidence points to the contrary.
Ace of Spades continues to take the media to task.
@dloesch Condemn?They won’t even cover it.”Mostly peaceful demonstrations”
— SquatchPride69 (@AceofSpadesHQ) December 11, 2012
waiting for @jammiewf‘s favorite phrase:”Mostly peaceful demonstrations”
— SquatchPride69 (@AceofSpadesHQ) December 11, 2012
@charlescwcooke do you think Tea Party subversives/disciples of Immanuel Goldstein maybe infiltrated the peaceful demonstration?

Question No One Is Asking: Will Obama Demand Union Members Behave Peacefully, Or Will He Bless Their Violence With Silence?
— SquatchPride69 (@AceofSpadesHQ) December 11, 2012
Everyone knows the answer, so the media pretends there’s not even a question here, or an option.
— SquatchPride69 (@AceofSpadesHQ) December 11, 2012
That’s right. Just like “get in their faces.” Sssh! Don’t mention such things!
And, where is Bob Costas with one of his sanctimonious lectures?
Waiting for Bob Costas to weigh in on the union “culture” of the union thug who screamed that he was going to kill Crowder with a gun.

Twitter users have had enough of the shameless media bias and lack of journalistic integrity.
Who did not cover it??“@brianfaughnan: Kudos to @joenbc for covering the assault on @scrowder yesterday.”

It’s sad that a member of the media needs to be singled-out and praised for doing his job, because it’s so rare.
The media constantly prepares America for Conservative/Right Wing violence, ignoring the current, violent outbursts of Liberals/Left Wing.

Where are the media? RT @michellemalkin My latest column: “There Will Be Blood”: Union Violence in the Age of Obama==> is.gd/GXDBKQ

Where’s the outrage from the media and the WH over the violence perpetrated in MI? What if that was a Tea Party rally? Or the NRA? Hypocrisy
— Chris Gossett (@Cgossett7Chris) December 12, 2012
#msnbc How did I know media would ignore-downplay violent acts in MI yet lie and fabricate violence at tea party events a few years back?
— Bill David (@wmdavid66) December 12, 2012
Sometimes to also push a false racism narrative.
The media ignores the union violence once again…. that conservative guy…. he fell onto the fist of the union bloke.
— Dagwood B. (@Daggy1) December 12, 2012
@2017badlands its sad how the media covers up this stuff ppl need to know what the union & its ppl have become. Filled with hate & violence
— Brenda McAfee (@bam711_ann) December 12, 2012
Media bias: all of my local news stations reported “protests” or “demonstrations” in MI; none mentioned, or even alluded to, the violence.
— John Hayward (@Doc_0) December 12, 2012
Not one mainstream media outlet reporting union violence! This is pure madness! What country is this!!!?
— R (@LibertyLynx) December 12, 2012
Isn’t our old media awesome? They pay much more attention to false claims tea party is violent than to actual violence from unions and OWS.
— Ken Gardner (@kesgardner) December 11, 2012
Not one Tea Partier has been arrested for violence since the movement began. Despite all the warnings of “potential violence” by the media.
— RB (@RBPundit) December 11, 2012
Yes. Yet, arrests, violence and rape were covered up for the degenerates at Occupy Wall Street.
Media: Tea Party=human hand grenades ready to blow; unions=vandalism isn’t really violence as long as nobody dies.
— John Hayward (@Doc_0) December 11, 2012
Obama gave the unions their marching orders, they got violent, media will ignore, violence will escalate. #AlinksyPlaybook
— S.M (@redsteeze) December 11, 2012
scary MT @justkarl Worth noting (again) media does not condemn leftist violence. Not mere bias. precedent for riots when we become lk Greece
— Prudence Paine (@PruPaine) December 12, 2012
Frightening, indeed.
The media is shameless and shameful.
Update: Oh, they were only “voicing their anger, you see.”

And it was “mostly peaceful” and all.
