Recall the following from my Blog News Roundup yesterday?
Anti-Tea Party Crowd Disappointed, Again[You can go to the link if you didn't read the post yesterday.]

Despite their worst intentions, the people who try to tie every act of violence to the Tea Party movement are going to have trouble spinning the Pentagon shooting by J. Patrick Bedell. It has become pretty...
Next, I wrote:
I just got finished writing a comment to GMPilot about the similarities between the plane bomber Joe Stack and the recent crazy Pentagon shooter:
And...about that plane bomber Joe Stack. He was a leftist progressive. Just like the recent Pentagon shooter who turned out to be a 9/11 truther. A pattern appears to be developing as of late. The disgruntled individuals who hate the government and take lethal matters into their own hands are of the ideology which sides more with you.
As the Legal Insurrection blogger pointed out, the progressive leftist lunatics try to pin the attacks that have been happening on the TEA Party movement. Each time, they have been shown to be the liars that they are.
And now, I found out that ABC'S GMA went ahead and spewed their own brand of propaganda yesterday:
Newsbusters reports: Weir Waves Napolitano's 'Right-wing Extremism' Report To Brand Bedell
Excerpt:
John Patrick Bedell was a registered Democrat who believed George W. Bush was behind 9-11.
So how does Good Morning America portray him? As a right-wing extremist, part of a pattern of anti-government violence that flares during Dem presidential administrations . . .
GMA had a two-part segment on Bedell this morning. First came a reasonable report by Martha Raddatz. At one point, as images of the WTC in flames appeared, she did state that "there had been Internet postings, laced with conspiracy theories about 9-11, and government corruption." Raddatz stopped short of mentioning that Bedell explicitly accused the Bush admin of being behind 9-11, calling them a "murderous government" and "collection of gangsters" that sacrificed "thousands of its citizens" on September 11th.
But then came co-host Bill Weir, literally waving Janet Napolitano's report about "right-wing extremism" in the air, and wondering out loud to ABC consultant and former FBI agent Brad Garrett, who was willing to go along, about having seen this before "during past Democratic administrations."
Read the rest here.
The first three comments at that site sum it all up quite well:

Bias is one thing. Lies are something else.
But this is actually propaganda now.

Hit that nail on the head you did (as Yoda would say). They aren't even subtle anymore just stupid or lying or just a typical knee jerk reaction all or a combination of all three) to anything done with a gun. You know: gun=NRA=Redneck=conservative.

This goes beyond mere bias -- and into the realm of deliberate obfuscation and propaganda.
The folks at ABC are not trustworthy.
Blatant propaganda!! How do these people live with themselves? LIARS!
Hat tips to all links.
