UNFAIR coverage of Ann Romney events in favor of Michelle Obama events..We ALL NEED TO ASK WHY?

Hey CBS, CNN, and Fox News..Why do you trip over yourselves to cover Michelle Obama Rallies live but totally ignore Ann Romney rallies?

TODAY is a perfect example. Michelle Obama had a rally today that was supposed to start at 2:45 PM EST. It started late. Ann Romney had one scheduled to start at 3:30 PM EST.

CBS..covered Michelle Obama's entire event including 10 MINUTES of Michelle Obama shaking hands until approximately 3:40 PM EST. INSTEAD OF BREAKING AWAY to cover the Ann Romney rally at 3:30, they started their feed well into her speech.

CNN, had it scheduled..same as above. They didn't even bother to cut into the Ann Romney Rally..Stayed with the Michelle Obama one.

Fox News, TOTALLY IGNORED THE EVENT but managed to show the Michelle Obama rally until she disappeared through a door.

WHAT THE HELL gives?

The coverage of these women campaigning for their husbands is basically FREE ADVERTISEMENTS for their husband's campaigns. Guess who's getting the most coverage?

CBS, CNN, and Fox news are doing a great JOB of covering Michele Obama at the rallies for her husband and a TOTALLY SHITY JOB of covering Ann Romney at the rallies for her husband.

Romney supporters need to contact these networks and ASK WHY?

Below is the Ann Romney event from Elizabethtown, PA discussed above captured 5-10 minutes into her speech from a major news media feed. Thanks CBS, FOX News, and CNN...I'm sure Michelle shaking hands at the end of an event that started late, is more in line with your priorities:


Here is the COMPLETE event (No THANKS TO ANY OF THE MAJOR NEWS OUTLETS That were  still covering Michelle Obama shaking hands for 10 minutes) that I managed to find at Lancasteronline, a local media outlet for the event:



I'm getting FED UP with this obviously blatant lack of coverage of her events. Either cover both wives equally, or don't cover either at all.

Here, here...not to mention the fact that Michelle Obama was speaking to a half empty gym in Cleveland, Ohio. Even MSNBC covered a few minutes of the Ann Romney speech.

Don't even get me started on how all of these networks have basically ignored Mitt Romney's speeches since just before the start of the DNC convention in September. At least I have to give CNN credit for putting up video of the campaign speeches even if they don't show them live. I'm starting to wonder if Fox News is afraid of Obama.

What the large media outlets are doing is recording them all and only releasing little snippets out of context.

If it weren't for sites like this, no one would get to see the entire events.

This is just one more example among thousands(millions?) of the broadcast news networks' extreme political partisanship - partisanship that is expressly PROHIBITED by the Radio Act of 1927 and the Communications Act of 1934, the bedrock of U.S. communications law.

Liberal politicians - for obvious reasons - have no desire to enforce these laws, and conservative politicians don't have the guts to.

Conservatives, especially Tea Party leaders, must make the gross misuse and abuse of the public airwaves one of our primary issues if we ever hope to get political action in this regard, because the news networks will never voluntarily give up their partisan, extreme agendas.

Specifically, we must demand free-and-equal time on the public airwaves for all ballot-qualified political parties and candidates, with party affiliation required for all news programs & news updates.

It's been done in other countries, it can be done here too.

Anyone who thinks that FOX is a "conservative" news outlet just isn't paying attention. The liberal & moderate commentators at FOX far outnumber the conservative ones. And FOX's hard news department is only slighly less liberal than those of CBS, NBC, ABC & CNN.

As an Obama supporter, let me say what I think. The news media outlets are about ratings, and while I admit Fox News is more Romney "friendly" than others, They ALL want an Obama win because they rather cover an open election on both sides in 2016. Despite what Hannity and Baier and Greta say, they are voting Obama to have a fun 2016 coverage.
