Besides sanitizing the party affiliations of scandal-ridden Democratic politicians, one of the more blatant examples of media bias we regularly see is how the usually disturbed people who turn out for left-wing protests are routinely portrayed as normal.
There's no better way of observing this disparity than seeing uncensored reports of what lefty protests are actually like. And there's no better chronicler of these events than the anonymous blogger Zombie. You'll get a real flavor (and several laughs) of left-wing lunacy by checking out her latest report on the fifth year anniversary of the Iraq war in San Francisco.
After reading Zombie's photo essay, head over to the San Francisco Chronicle's "mainstreamed" version of the event which doesn't mention any of the communist groups, pro-terrorist factions, and violent jerks who constituted the majority of the protestors.

Ode to Protestors
March 26, 2008 - 11:59 ET by allanfIn that spirit, Ft. Lauderdale Sun Sentienel ran a rather fawning portrait of some local "activists" who had blocked access to the site of a new power plant.
But from the story, these folks emerge more as cartoon characters than serious people.
..and close to running the country.

March 26, 2008 - 12:17 ET by seaniepthat reminds me of a t shirt I saw once with Che's picture and the text read "viva la ignorant spoiled rich white kids!"
sickening
March 26, 2008 - 12:37 ET by GOPFOXThese people seriously make me sick... Especially the fatty wearing the XXL women's sized Che sweatshirt... does she even know how to pronouce his name or better yet, how many deaths he is responsible for? Get a f-ing clue.
Heh! Che-maniacs
March 26, 2008 - 14:38 ET by ArcherBI love to ask a Che-maniac what they think we should do about Guantanimo Bay. After their rant against torture and they throw out words like "Justice" and "due process", I like to recite my favorite Che quote, which is also my sig here.

March 26, 2008 - 12:45 ET by bigtimerLeave it to San Fran...just precious isn't it?
Really cute the sign... 'Stupid enuff to join....dumb 'nuf to die'...
...and to think we (our fine military) protect their so-called right to do this filthy, immature BS.
Outrageous, sickening to me.

For the liberal oleft this is normal. And the left media are just as screwed up. Need proof? Listen to Olbermann for a few minutes.

Perfect example regarding Olbie.
Plus look at the older critters there...something to be real proud of.

Commenting on these guys as normal is a failure by the press.
They could do a whole WEEK of expose's on the various mental deviancies present in these crowds.

March 26, 2008 - 17:41 ET by BigBI can't help but notice that none of the resident leftards ever seem to chime in on things like this.... Why do you suppose that is???
I also love the Zombietime site....Pure derangement in living color...
Now, this might sting just a little bit.....

March 26, 2008 - 17:51 ET by BlondeThank you Matthew, for the laughs.
A fellow NB introduced me to this site about a year ago...I'd kind of forgotten about it.
After viewing this, I think I need to purchase some Alcoa stock....no shortage of tin-foil hat lunies.

Old school meets new school
March 26, 2008 - 20:04 ET by acumenMy favorite Zombie report of the day - Bezerkeley libs do chaos. Hmmm, should we join the Maoist protest or the Tibetan protest. Oh my....what's a lib to do?
Hope Mr. Sheffield at least reads this.
March 27, 2008 - 10:55 ET by JWFMr. Sheffield,
Once again, I am late to the party. This would be funny if it were not such an outrage. Zombie has been doing this for years, Littlegreenfootballs has been linking to him as long as I have been visiting.
This is an excellent example of why we need newsbusters. It is always the same, Zombie shows evidence in pictures of the kooky creepy nutcase nature of the people at these antiwar rallies. And the news coverage always makes them out to be honest folks just gathering to show their anger at a war we should have never waged.
Yet no one has bothered to call up Mr. Zombie, or email him etc. to ask "hey, is this really what these people are like? or, are you focusing in on the few oddjobs that show up?"
I will bet you good money, that he will tell you. Yes, this represents the majority at these rallies. And yes, this is the biggest collection of socialists, conspiracy kooks, palestinian apologists, code pink whackjobs, neohippies and just plain nuttyfruity weirdos.
Then we have the duplicitous news media, that come some anniversary or milestone that they want to harp on, out comes the most benign coverage of these idiots they can come up with.
Americans were rightly shocked by some the the rants the Rev. Wright came up with, but they do not hold a candle to most of the lunacy these people scrawl on their posters, usually with awfully grammar and speling.(sic)
Please do not let this issue drop. We need to see more light shed on this little game.
Thanks,
Your buddy,
JWF
ps: Mr. Zombie will tell you. He has fans and followers that are doing the same thing in other cities. I have followed links to them too.
