Owners of Washington Post Have Extreme Bias and Hatred
By MassNews Staff
            The fabulously wealthy family from Washington, D.C. who control the news in that area, the Grahams, stupidly devoted almost all of their Newsweek magazine last week to the hunting mishap of Vice President Cheney. They control, along with the owners of the New York Times, the Sulzberger family, almost all of what we are allowed to learn along the East coast of our country from Maine to Virginia --- also extending to most of America when one considers their subsidiaries, as demonstrated by this week's issue of Newsweek.
            The spoiled, wealthy Chairman of the "Washington Post Company,” Donald Graham, is a clone of the spoiled, wealthy Chairman of "The New York Times Company," Pinch Sulzberger, who includes the "Boston Globe" as one of his many subsidiaries. Both are unapologetic liberals, born like royalty to wealth and power. Both have a dislike and fear of war, which is preached daily in the news columns of the newspapers they own, but that dislike and fear is pushed aside when they battle each other for power.   

Both are striving to lead this country, although neither has any personal experience with anyone other than super-rich liberals.                       The Graham family demonstrated last week that it’s even worse than the Sulzberger family in extreme hatred and bias of those it dislikes.         It used the entire cover of its "Newsweek" magazine, along with thirteen full pages (with no advertising to interfere with the story) to "get" the Vice President for the hunting accident where a companion wandered out of his sight and received birdshot in the face.  No one knows whose fault it was.

Newsweek Magazine Used Its Entire Issue Last Week to Attack Vice President Cheney
            Newsweek magazine used 47% of the space which it had allocated for news last week to bludgeon Vice President Dick Cheney for his hunting mishap.
With 23-pages of the magazine devoted to news other than Cheney, the accident itself got 14-pages plus the entire front cover. In addition, most of the remaining pages had Cheney prominently mentioned in them. 
            The headline over the story about Cheney screamed: The Shot Heard Round the World and included these words: Cheney’s dark, secretive mind-set.
A sidebar shouted this quote: “He Lost Control of His Emotions” but the few readers who got past the headline found the quote to have come from “veteran hunter John Freck,” who was not identified anywhere in the story.
            The Assistant Managing Editor, Evan Thomas, was carefully chosen to lead the effort. One of his previous assignments was in the 2004 election where he headed the team who did the following article: How Bush Did It; Exclusive: A team of newsweek reporters unveils the untold fears, secret battles and private emotions behind a historic election.
            This new article about Cheney was deemed to be very important and even included a two-page topographic model of the accident scene (like they used in World War II) with the headline: In the Line of Fire. 
            It was obvious that the editor of the story, Evan Thomas, gathered his staff together while the issue was being planned and told them to include Cheney in every story they possibly could. Thus, even an article about modern art at the Washington National Gallery included this in the middle: Last week, on the heels of the vice president of the United States’ [sic] shooting his hunting buddy in an opera buffa accident right out of “The Pickwick Papers” …
             It was extremely difficult to pick up the magazine without reading about Cheney. A reader was safe in the three-pages of Letters, in the four-pages of color photos about the Olympic snowboarders and in the 19-pages of advertising.
             The contents, at the beginning of the magazine, said: The Hunt for Cheney: What the hunting mishap says about the real Cheney.
            The Editor’s Desk on the next page was almost all about Cheney and the friend he shot, victim Harry Whittington.
            The “Conventional Wisdom Watch” on the next page had a down-arrow next to Bush and Cheney with the following next to Cheney’s arrow: Hunting accident underlines the worst in him: Secrecy, imperiousness and refusal to admit mistakes.
             A large Perspectives headline ran across the top of the page: “I’m the guy who pulled the trigger and shot my friend” with a cartoon of one woman showing a big book with the title Eats Shoots and Leaves while saying “It’s Dick Cheney’s biography.”
             And thus it went throughout the entire 68-page issue.
             Even the magazine’s Editor wrote, “We did not turn up some details that you might not have read elsewhere,” but we wrote about Cheney and his accident anyhow because of “what it says about the mysterious world of the most powerful vice president of recent times.”
             In other words, in a world where more and more talented people decide not to go into politics because of what will be done to their family and loved ones, the Graham family wants to cause fewer people to opt for an elected office unless they are ultraliberal friends.  
             The entire, color cover showed an old photo of the Vice President aiming his shotgun in a South Dakota cornfield (the accident occurred in Texas) while the headline announced: Cheney's Secret World.          
            Judging by the amount of space devoted to the story by the publication, it was by far the most important story in the entire world.

Coming: The Most Powerful Man in Washington Is Not a President. They come for a few years like a Prime Minister in England and then leave, whereas the Grahams, like the King and Queen stay forever. How much do you know about the Grahams?
