Guaranteed not to be in any of the mainstream big newspapers was this little tidbit about five deaths from the use of mifepristone, also known as RU-486. Why, that pill was supposed to be safe, people aren't harmed by early chemical abortions, are they? Well, yeah, they are, this has been known for many years. It's just that that inconvenient little truth didn't match the bill of goods we were being sold on this little way to have an abortion. You can find a story about it in the Washington Times but don't bother looking anywhere else for it.
The big news outlets also wanted to paint a gloomy picture of sales following Thanksgiving, never mind that the actual numbers were strong. If you can make the economy appear to be bad, you can then blame Bush for it. If the numbers are actually good, all you have to do is cherry-pick some stat to make it appear not so. So when sales at the mall aren't up as much as hoped for, use that instead of the big increase in sales for stores like Best Buy and Target.
Well, how can you defeat evil Republicans if you report news thats actually good?
