"NBC Puppet-Master!"

Remember a few weeks ago when the White House declared FOX NEWS an enemy of the state. After that Joe Klein had an article calling FOX treasonous. The Obama administration made a concerted effort to freeze FOX from any real contact with the White House giving them minimal cooperation during interviews and press conferences. This effort to ostracize FOX seemed to be cooling off in recent days, yet now something much more sinister is taking place. Many years ago, when I was just a boy Madison Avenue Ad agencies were accused of using subliminal advertising to entice the public to buy their advertised products. There was even a senate investigation into this spurious practice which resulted in some regulation into this questionable method of "drumming up business". I'm a big fan of good "cop" shows. I nearly cried when NYPD Blue went off the air, it had fine actors, well thought out scripts, and a reality seldom seen on television. I honestly can't remember any episode that tried to exploit any political message either from the left or the right during it's entire run. The series had several Emmy Awards and was highly praised by critics and the public alike. Last week Dick Wolf, the "guru" of the "Law and Order" franchise had on an episode in which Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and Bill O'Rielly were referred to as "hate mongers" that preyed on the fears and prejudice of the people in regards to illegal immigration. Wolf has shown who he is by underwriting this character assassination masquerading as drama. I have been a listener and viewer of these commentators for several years and I will attest to the fact that although Rush may be a bit caustic he has never, ever spoken anything that could remotely be construed as "hate speech", he is truthful to the point of being painful; perhaps that is why he is so vilified by the left. Glenn Beck also is someone who manages to strike a nerve with the left as he continues to reveal the flaws and radical thinking that continues to flow out of Washington, yet as with Limbaugh I have yet to hear anything one could identify as "hate speech". Bill O'Rielly is the most fair and balanced commentator on television today and takes personal pride in the fact that he will show both side of every issue regardless of his personal beliefs. NBC is in the hip-pocket of the Obama administration and have been their since Obama became a presidential candidate. I'm sure no one will admit it ,but in my "heart of hearts" I believe the philosophy of the writing of this script was some how influenced by our current Democratic administration. Personally I often enjoyed many of the "Law and Order" shows and it's numreous spin-offs, but after this obvious attempt to demonize people just because of their political opposition to NBC's political agenda I won't waste any more of my hours on anything presented by NBC or Dick Wolf. What bothers me the most is those countless viewers that watched this program and have never seen or heard Limbaugh, Beck, or O'Rielly and will believe what was said without actually knowing any of the facts. The next time you turn on your television be careful, somebody may be messing with your mind!
