Rocky's Bartels shows media bias against Swift Boaters

Here’s another example of left-wing media bias in today’s Rocky Mountain News.

Note that Lynn doesn’t give the Swift Boaters’ side of the story. She just writes an editorial against them:

Swift Boat paid for ads featuring Vietnam veterans making what critics said where unsubstantiated allegations challenging Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry’s record of wartime heroism. Kerry was the Democratic Party’s nominee for president.

Democrats believe the ads helped prolong the Iraq war by aiding the re-election of President George W. Bush.

“The lies of the so-called Swift Boat Veterans for Truth were an insult to everyone who has ever worn the uniform of our country,” Kerry spokesman Drew O’Brien said Thursday.

“I can’t imagine why anyone, let alone any Democrat, would want to be associated with those who bankrolled smears and lies about a decorated combat veteran.”

Of course, those who agree with her editorial won’t admit that this is liberal media bias. No matter how much evidence they see, they say liberal media bias doesn’t exist.

The Swift Boaters who served with Kerry came forward in 2004 to tell the truth about Kerry and expose him as a traitor and liar. They saved the country and world from Kerry.
