Virginian-Pilot- Unashamedly liberal
They promised not to endorse in the Presidential race. Probably because they practically already have.
Their editorial about the Republican convention:
“the days of rancor”
“this week’s angry convention”
“putting on a tired show of anti-media anger”
Funny…the anger America saw were the liberal protesters and the sexist attacks on Sarah Palin and her family by the left.
Oh, but what about the coronation of St. Obama? Their editorial:
“Obama showed the counter-punching ability he’ll need”
“He called McCain out”
“he finished Thursday’s round fresh and on the offense”
See, when Democrats are negative, the Pilot sees that as a good thing. But Republicans are angry,tired and full of rancor?
Wonder why fewer and fewer people even want to read the newspaper anymore? I don’t.

The Virginian Pilot sucks. It’s unreadable and the layout hurts my eyes. The paper is a joke. I hope Rupert Murdock buys Landmark and fires all of these people. What the hell else could Dennis Hartig and Mike Gruss and Don Lazzatto do for a living? They would all starve if it weren’t for food stamps and government cheese. They are unemployable in any other profession.
LIBERAL? I guess endorsing Thelma Drake in 2006 with the big blue wave crashing nation-wide is liberal too then. Sometimes, Brian, right winged or centrist people decisively break left in major change elections. To be non-conservative is not to be liberal, you idealogue.
It’s funny how so many liberals think they’re centrists.
It doesn’t explain how they think the GOP is so “angry” and the Democrats are just “on the offense.”
Unless the Virginian-Pilot is full of “idealogues” – nah, that couldn’t be!
Brian,
You are dead on, the hypocrisy and bias in the media has never been more evident than in the last week. It wasn’t 24 hours after Palin’s choice as the Vice-Presidential candidate that the media attack dogs began tearing her down.
Through unsubstantiated rumors with no proof, the liberal attack dogs began accusing Governor Palin of faking her pregnancy, until the only choice left for the McCain campaign was to blast the life of a 17-year old girl all over the paper.
Why hasn’t the media investigated the 17-year old Barack Obama and asked him how long he used cocaine, did he ever sell it and when did he truly kick the habit. I’m sure many of the liberals out there will accuse me of making this up with no proof, but these comments and suggested questions come from Barack Obama’s own quotes in his book. For those of you who aren’t aware, Senator Obama retells his life as a 17-year old doing pot, drinking heavily and even “blow when we could afford it.” He does not go into detail as to how long he used for, but he does mention having to hide it from his mom.
I think the public deserves to know how long was this man, who is the actual candidate, doing these ILLEGAL activities. Did he ever sell drugs, when did he stop, is he still taking them. All of these were valid questions when Clinton exclaimed, “I didn’t inhale,” which Obama refers to by remarking in his book the he most definitely did inhale. It was also an issue of the partying and drinking of George W. Bush.
So, where is the media asking questions about our possible future president’s illegal activities? They would rather concentrate on the life of a 17-year old girl who IS NOT running for president, instead of the illegal activity of a potential future president.
Ian,
In 2006, from the time of the Vice President’s visit here the V-P began setting the table to endorse Phil Kellam. It was only when Kellam became his worst own enemy, then stood up Dennis Hartig at the Sandbridge Civic League, that the V-P reluctantly endorsed Drake.
Virginia Pilot Newspaper and columnist Bill Sizemore have paid $20,000 for Protected Documents from Case against Pat Robertson and Cbn The 700 Club.
Virginia Pilot and Sizemore than met at Cbn with Pat Robertson and his crew and denied what Robertson stated that they were trying to destroy him and Cbn.
Belive it or not Pat Robertson is telling the truth . There is Documents and etc other information to prove this .
Virginia Pilot didt know they were dealing with FBI Informant . This is no Joke . Note also this man knew OBAMA when he was in Chicago and was involved in Housing Projects and has sent many peolple to Jail.
[...] laws, drawing objections even from electoral boards in liberal strongholds like Norfolk. As the liberal Norfolk Virginian-Pilot [...]
