John Nolte: MSM Currently Brewing Up Phony ‘Undefeated’ Narrative

"The left-wing media wants the film to flop and will grasp at any straw available..."
*
We just knew it was only a matter of time before the criminal enterprise known as the media pulled a stunt like this:
With the roaring success ”The Undefeated” has already had at changing the conversation about Sarah Palin from tanning beds and crosshair maps to, you know, her actual record as a public servant, the Left and their dishonest allies in the MSM are obviously as worried as they are desperate. As a result, this morning at ”The Atlantic” we’re greeted with a 950+ word article filled with precious NPR-esque prose and the delicate pose of a journalist just reporting the difficult truth, all under the following headline:

Sarah Palin Movie Debuts to Empty Theater in Orange County

[...]

If you read the fine print…

“The Atlantic” writer is reporting on his experience at a midnight screening … on a Thursday night.

No.

Really.

Read the story again and you’ll see that the emptiness of a midnight screening on a work night is not only worthy of 950+ words and a wildly misleading headline, but also all these subsequent MSM stories filled with similar headlines.

And you can bet there will be more stories to come.

This is how the corrupt MSM works.

Here's a novel concept: Instead of taking the opinion of any reviewer - be it positive or negative - as gospel, why not see the movie and judge it for yourself?
