The Guardian Knights of the Obama Administration

While I wouldn't necessarily adopt the title of this video post with respect to NBC's Matt Lauer losing his cool during an interview with Michelle Malkin, I would note a few things here. First, NBC and MSNBC have been in bed with President Obama for a long time. As we all know, Jeffrey Immelt, the CEO of GE, NBC's parent company, holds a position as an economic advisor to President Obama and GE has helped shape much of the legislation coming out of the Democratic controlled Congress as well as benefiting from such legislation (I'm planning a large post later on laying out all of this in more detail.) So, I ask that you watch Lauer, a journalist, not a commentator, in this interview and see if you feel he is being objective or defensive on behalf of the administration. Then, at the end of the video, I'd like you to note the look on his face and listen because you can here him twisting up the papers in his hand into a roll over the audio feed. This is a guy who was clearly angered by the interview. Objectivism in the some of the mainstream media, especially the media controlled by GE, is dead, and probably has been for years.
