Malkin on DHS, Tea Parties, and media bias


Today, Michelle Malkins expands on the bias and dishonesty in the mainstream media. In her intro to today's column, she connects her outrage at media malpractice to her upcoming appearance at Occupy the Truth in downtown Cleveland on Sat., Aug. 18. Here's her intro:

As you read my column below, bear in mind this new report that the Obama administration ordered that the the General Services Administration give special treatment to law-breaking Occupy protesters and dwell on the media whitewashing of the Occupy Cleveland terror plotters.

If you are in the Ohio area next week, we will be calling attention to the double standards and Occupy coddling of the MSM smear merchants. I’ll join my longtime friend and blogger extraordinaire Jim Hoft and Hating Breitbart director/documentarian Andrew Marcus at Occupy the Truth, Cleveland OH, August 18th, Willard Park/Freestamp Plaza, 11am-1pm. COME JOIN US!

Her column, "Revisiting the DHS Smear of the Tea Party Movement," is here.

Michelle Malkin to keynote Occupy The Truth


Michelle Malkin will be the keynote speaker for the Occupy The Truth event on Saturday, Aug. 18, 11am-1pm, at Willard Park at the Free Stamp in downtown Cleveland. Gateway Pundit and Cleveland Tea Party Patriots are co-hosting the event. Here's the news release posted at Gateway Pundit:

PRESS RELEASE
August 9, 2012, 8:00 a.m. CST
‘Occupy The Truth For Peace and Justice’ Tea Party Organizers Announce Keynote Speaker Michelle Malkin

—–Director of Hating Breitbart, Andrew Marcus, and Blogger Powerhouse Jim Hoft of Gateway Pundit announce Michelle Malkin as Keynote Speaker for Tea Party Protest “Occupy The Truth” set for August 18th in Cleveland, Ohio—–

Cleveland, Ohio August 9, 2012 / — This morning, Filmmaker Andrew Marcus, Director of the upcoming documentary Hating Breitbart and Jim Hoft of Gateway Pundit announce that media powerhouse Michelle Malkin will be the Keynote Speaker at “Occupy the Truth”. This Tea Party protest will shine the light on the dishonest coverage of the media of the attempted violent bombing planned by members of Occupy Cleveland. The event will be held at Willard Park/Freestamp Plaza in Cleveland, Ohio near the site of the planned bombing on August 18th.

Malkin is a widely read conservative blogger with one of the largest digital footprints in politics on the web. She is a Fox News contributor, syndicated writer and highly successful New York Times best selling author of multiple books on politics and culture and is the founder of Hot Air News Site and MichelleMalkin.com. Her keen understanding of the rapidly expanding social media arena, and its impact on shaping the political narrative, has resulted in her recent launch of Twitchy, a ground-breaking entrant in the Twitter curation/aggregation space.

Malkin will join speakers Marcus, Hoft, and additional speakers to be announced in the coming week.

Hoft opines, “I have known Michelle for years. She has been, and continues to be, one of the most powerful voices in American politics. She has consistently been willing to hold the mainstream media accountable for their continued, chronic media malpractice. She is, without question, one of the most fearless voices of truth in the American political dialogue. Her willingness to come to Cleveland, the scene of the almost crime, and call attention to the embarrassing, willful collaboration of the media with the Occupy movement, is an indication of just how important it is that all of us, whenever possible, force the media to Occupy the Truth.”

Marcus elaborates, “The media would be happy if their lack of intellectual and professional vigor was swept under the carpet. Indeed, it happens so regularly. They don’t want to see everyday Americans questioning them. And in another era, at another time, that might have happened. But because of people like Andrew Breitbart and Michelle Malkin, the playing field has undergone a dramatic change. The mainstream media no longer not only owns the narrative, they no longer even own the news cycle. THEY might want this important story to go away, but the American people deserve to know the truth. If they won’t cover it, we will. We are grateful and excited that Michelle will be a part of this important event.”

It’s time for our voices to be heard. Join us on August 18th in Cleveland.

Occupy movement and Sen. Sherrod Brown



"Occupy The Truth" at Free Stamp / Willard Park on Saturday, Aug. 18
Sen. Sherrod Brown supports the Occupy movement

Cleveland Tea Party Patriots are co-hosting the August 18 event. Here's some background on Occupy Cleveland, the Occupiers' plan to blow up the Cuyahoga Valley Bridge and other targets, and Sen. Sherrod Brown's ongoing enthusiastic support of Occupy, from Third Base Politics here. (And check the links!):

Occupy movement that Sherrod Brown praises tried to blow up NE Ohio bridge


It was only a matter of time. We've watched with disgust as our Senator Sherrod Brown heaps praise on the the nakedly communist movement known as Occupy Wall Street. He has even co-opted their language on his own website. Now, the Occupy vermin are actively engaging in terrorism.

Five people have been arrested for trying to blow up a bridge here in Northeast Ohio.
The final plan allegedly named the Route 82 Brecksville-Northfield High Level Bridge, which crosses from Brecksville to Sagamore Hills, as the designated target. The IED drop location was reportedly under the bridge on the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail near the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad Brecksville Station.

The suspects were identified Tuesday as Brandon Baxter, 20; Anthony Hayne, 35; Joshua Stafford, 23; Connor Stevens, 20; and Douglas Wright, 26, Fox affiliate WJW-TV reported.
So who are these guys?

Brandon Baxter is a member of Occupy Cleveland and was previously arrested at an Occupy Cleveland demonstration. Here is a picture of him at the Occupy Cleveland encampment. He also talked about plans to derail a passenger train off of a railroad bridge. Another target was the Valley View bridge, which any Northeast Ohioan will tell you would have caused massive loss of life. If blown up during rush hour, there would have been hundreds dead. Below is a capture of his Facebook page. (Down the page, he lists Sherrod Brown as one of his interests.)


Several of the others also list Occupy Cleveland as their "occupation". The Occupy movement has been warning of massive May Day protests, but most people have been focused on New York City. It hits a little too close to home when you find out that they could have blown up a bridge and killed people right here in Ohio.

We have denounced these scumbag Occupiers and their crime-ridden demonstrations from the very beginning. But not Sherrod Brown. He embraced the movement, even though they have been involved in thousands of arrests, including rape. But he scolded the people who demonstrate peacefully at Tea Party protests, where not a single arrest has ever been required. When it comes between the freedom-loving patriots on the right, and the America-hating, terrorist communists on the left, Sherrod Brown has made it clear who he stands with.

Update: As of now, May 1st, 2012, Brown's own website still makes it clear that Sherrod stands with Occupy Wall Street. Click here for a screen capture that Jason archived.

“Occupy The Truth” August 18




From: Cleveland Tea Party Patriots

Occupy The Truth!

The MSM Can't Handle The Truth
and Won't Tell The Truth


(Sun., Aug, 5, 2012) From the Rep. Gabby Giffords shooting to the latest tragedy in Colorado, before the blood has even dried, with wall to wall coverage -- the mainstream media (MSM), the progressive pundits and talking heads on the left have been quick to assign blame for these tragedies on Tea Party influences or Tea Party supporters.

This inaccurate, irresponsible, biased and agenda-driven avalanche of media coverage is done in the so-called name of serving the public with the news & the truth. In fact, it has been proven as the TRUTH, there were never any "Tea Party" connections to any of these senseless tragedies.

In a stark but telling contrast, as they step up to serve as the Democrat & liberals’ "grassroots" answer to the peaceful and patriotic Tea Party movement, the "Occupy" movements’ continued campaign of civil unrest, catastrophe and chaos on the American public, still go unreported by the MSM.

Giving more coverage to Olympic swimwear, the Mainstream Media has all but whitewashed the attempted death and destruction caused in May of this year, when members of the "Occupy Cleveland", to affect the political landscape, tried blowing up two targets: the Cuyahoga Valley National Bridge, which carries nearly 14,000 vehicles a day, and the Federal Reserve Bank in busy downtown Cleveland, Ohio.

Patriots - It is time to "OCCUPY the Truth"

On August 18th at the Free Stamp Plaza (Willard Park) in downtown Cleveland, OH, Filmmaker Andrew Marcus, Director of the upcoming documentary Hating Breitbart, Jim Hoft of Gateway Pundit and the Cleveland Tea Party Patriots will be holding an "Occupy the Truth" Tea Party protest against the dishonest coverage and cover-up by the media of the attempted terrorist bombings planned by members of Occupy Cleveland.

As Andrew Breitbart said, “The media class is the wall we need to climb over in order for our voices to be heard. Once our voices are heard then democracy will happen.”

It’s time for our voices to be heard. Join us on August 18th in Cleveland (time to be announced). We will have a special guest --- so stay tuned for more details!

For more information or to schedule interviews, contact Jim Hoft (@GatewayPundit) at midwestjim@charter.net, Andrew Marcus (@HatingBreitbart) at contact@hatingbreitbart.com or Ralph King at clevelandteaparty@gmail.com.

The event will be held on August 18th at Willard Park / Freestamp Plaza in Cleveland, Ohio near the site of one of the planned bombings.

From Gateway Pundit: Occupy The Truth August 18 * In Cleveland


Major News Release from Gateway Pundit:

PRESS RELEASE:

August 4, 2012, 1 p.m. EDT

Tea Party Protest Announced:

Occupy The Truth * August 18th, Cleveland, OH

Director of Hating Breitbart, Andrew Marcus, and Blogger Powerhouse Jim Hoft of Gateway Pundit announce a Tea Party Protest “Occupy The Truth” set for August 18thin Cleveland, Ohio

Washington, D.C., August 4, 2012 / — Today, Filmmaker Andrew Marcus, Director of the upcoming documentary Hating Breitbart and Jim Hoft of Gateway Pundit announced a Tea Party protest against the dishonest coverage and cover-up by the media of the attempted terrorist bombings planned by members of Occupy Cleveland. The event will be held on August 18th at Willard Park / Freestamp Plaza in Cleveland, Ohio near the site of the planned bombings. A march for truth and justice is planned.

Marcus explains, “On May 1st, 2012, the FBI announced that members of Occupy Cleveland were arrested for attempting several acts of terrorism, including the detonation of what they thought was an explosive device in an effort to destroy the Cuyahoga Valley bridge, as well as an attack on the Federal Reserve Bank. And yet when the Mainstream Media reported on this planned act of domestic terrorism, they whitewashed both the severity of the charges and the open links to Occupy, a movement endorsed by many in the Democrat party. This planned act of violence should not be parsed by the media for the sake of politics. Americans should be able to trust that when their lives are at stake, safety trumps politics. This is yet another example of the media’s shocking politicization and malpractice. This is too important to be pushed aside. We’re not going to let them get away with it any more.”

Hoft expands, “ Because the main story came from the AP, and that version went out of its way to hide the truth about the motivations and blatant connections of these alleged terrorists, the false narrative was spread to a myriad of publications. This is an injustice to the truth and an insult. How many people must die before they report the truth about this dangerous far left group.”

The announcement came, by no accident, at the Americans for Prosperity’s 6th Annual Defending the American Dream Summit panel, led by Marcus, Hoft and radio host Tony Katz, entitled “Being Breitbart.”

As Andrew Breitbart said, “The media class is the wall we need to climb over in order for our voices to be heard. Once our voices are heard then democracy will happen.”

It’s time for our voices to be heard. Join us on August 18th in Cleveland. We have a special guest who will be there.

"This is the busiest day we've ever had," said Chick-Fil-A Strongsville owner-operator Brian Wellman. "Busier than our grand opening."

Michelle Malkin posted Twitchy tweets and photos of huge crowds and long lines yesterday across America. Other Chick-Fil-A locations in greater Cleveland are
