Stephanopoulos - Journalist or Propagandist?

Extreme Bias in the news as this article shows!

MRC's Bozell Urges Action on Stephanopoulos
By NB Staff (Bio Archive)February 2, 2009


Last week, Media Research Center President and NewsBusters Publisher Brent Bozell issued a statement expressing displeasure with "This Week" anchor George Stephanopoulos, who, reported the January 27 edition of Politico, has daily message and strategy chats with Obama chief-of-staff Rahm Emanuel and fellow Clinton administration alumni James Carville and Paul Begala.

The Media Research Center's MRCAction.org quickly took action, working with its grassroots members to present ABC News with a recusal petition (accessible here) and by informing members how they can call ABC News to complain about Stephanopoulos conflict of interest.
Below is an excerpt of Friday's MRCAction Alert, including information on how to call ABC News:

After urging every member of the MRC Action Team to call ABC News and demand that he immediately recuse himself from reporting on any issues involving the Obama Administration, thousands of members took immediate action!
In fact, we've learned that ABC News switchboard
personnel were completely swamped, and couldn't keep up
with the heavy volume of angry calls.

MRC Friend, this is a tremendous beginning, but until the matter is resolved, and George Stephanopoulos recuses himself from further reporting on the Obama administration, we want to increase the grassoots heat even more!
+ + Don't Stop Calling!
MRC Friend, even if you've already called, please do so again, right now--and follow it up with emails using our convenient email form complete with talking points!
We are expanding this effort, and have added Stephanopoulos's boss, David Westin, President of ABC News and Westin's boss, Anne Sweeney, Co-Chairman of Disney. They all need to hear from you.
Here are the numbers to call:
George Stephanopoulos, Washington Chief Correspondent, ABC News 202-222-7700
David Westin, President ABC News 212-456-6200
