Arbiter of all that is Right and good, Ken Pittman used his on air broadcast and blog ( see pic) to slam the New Bedford Standard Times for supressing and "censoring" news of the 9-12-09 "9-11 unity/protest Obama" Tea Party in Washington D.C. on Saturday.
Times covers Tea Party
However, as the picture below shows, the 1420 WMAR host is spinning a lie again. The event was covered in full by the Times,
including a flattering piece about Mass. residents. It is clear that the Standard Times gave coverage of local and national Tea Partiers far above WBSM.
However, just like his "9-11 memorial" show, Pittman paints right wingers as the victims while assaulting the supposed meanness of liberals. On Friday's memorial, Pittman argued that 9-11 should be memorialized respectfully and proceeded to attack Obama for turning 9-11 into a horrifying "day of national service." In truth, Obama merely endorsed the Bush/Congress plan for for a day of service.
Its 9-11, vote Scott!!!!
Following a tastefully timed political infomercial by Sen. Scott Brown, The host moved on to an attack on Carl Levin for wanting to discuss troop increases in the Afghan War ( a forgotten war fought by non south coast GOP members). Nancy Pelosi was next, slammed as "someone who would be an isolationist" if we were back in WW2.
You really gotta love that 9-12 spirit of American unity that Glenn Beck wants to spread!!!
