sheryl gay stolberg is such a liberal democrat….
The New York Times reporter Sheryl Gay Stolberg covers the White House. Anyone want to guess what her political persuasion is? i bet she voted for Obama. She has been letting her partisanship show for years but lately she is giddy with Obama-mania….is she really someone that is objective enough to cover President Bush and have an unbiased perspective on his 2 terms as he leaves the White House? here are just the 2 stories she did after Obama was elected.
November 9th’s story was titled: “White House Memo – Obama Will Visit Bush, Watching Out for Tacks …”. Does Sheryl really think President Bush is that bitter and class-less? i think he has been gracious and honorable. Wasn’t it Obama that spent more than $100 million to bash Bush during the Campaign? Why didn’t Sheryl point that out? Obama has been the one leaving “tacks” on the chairs…or maybe it’s been Sheryl??
November 11th’s story finished with this paragraph: “A sense of anticipation extended beyond 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. As the Obamas’ limousine made its way to the White House, hundreds of people lined the streets, craning their necks to see. When the door opened and the couple stepped out to greet the Bushes, there was an unfamiliar sound: cheering outside the White House gates.”
How does Sheryl know that to be true? She doesn’t – from her office she can’t hear or see the front gates of the White House. This is her opinion. And since her story didn’t appear on the Editorial and Opinion Page, her views should stay inside the voting booth and not in a newsstory. This is what I emailed Sheryl yesterday:
“why did you write that snotty comment at the end of your story today about how there hasn’t been applause heard outside of the white house in a long time. it seems like a comment from someone with a partisan agenda, as well as just plain mean-spirited. weren’t you the reporter lamenting how politics has gotten nasty lately? i am certain you don’t know if it is actually true that there hasn’t been applause outside of the white house in a long time. have you stood out front of the white house to know? and if you did, how long did you stand out there?”
she hasn’t answered me…..
