CBS/NYT Ignore Own Poll Showing Obama Job Approval at 40%

Largely Ignored Yesterday, Code Pink Got Page-One Photos in 2002
Both Old Media and Old Medea were at it again yesterday.
Old Medea is Medea Benjamin, the head of Code Pink, who led the disruption of a Senate hearing on ISIS and was eventually hauled away. Old Media demonstrated its double standards by giving Ms. Benjamin's temper tantrum little attention.

In a shocker, New York Times TV critic Alessandra Stanley panned "The View" and new "conservative" co-host Nicolle Wallace.

NY Times Editorial Board Decries More Hawkish Obama, Cowardly Congress
On Friday, the editorial board of The New York Times warned that allowing the president to escalate military action against ISIS -- the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria – without Congressional approval would set “a dangerous precedent” in a move the board also called “unjustifiable.”

Gingrich — and Reality — Also Humiliated Jay Carney on CNN
As the midnight oil-burning Curtis Houck at NewsBusters noted last night, John McCain ripped into Jay Carney's attempts to rewrite history Wednesday evening on CNN.

In other words, our military and Iraqi government had achieved victory. Barack Obama and his…
