12:09 - Politico Shifts From Bias to Outright Left-Wing Activism

Bias is when the media pretend to be objective. This is usually how Politico operates; they pose as objective to protect Obama and Democrats. The government shutdown, though, has forced Politico to drop its mask of objectivity and assume the role of outright left-wing activism.

As you will see in the links below, Politico doesn't even attempt to pretend that what they are doing is journalism. The examples below are pure activism, and all of it directly angled to protect Obama and the shutdown narrative blaming the GOP:

1. Politico Begs Media Not to Report On ObamaCare Glitches

2. Politico Taunts GOP to Shut Down the Government

3. Politico Flacks for Harry Reid By Reading His Mind

The first two stories were lead pieces.

It is important to again note that Politico presents itself as an objective, unbiased media outlet.

And again, the linked examples above are not examples of bias. read the original pieces and what you will objectively see is flat-out, full-bored left-wing activism with no attempt to disguise it as anything else.
