D.C. Reporter Suspended for Daring to State the Facts on BP Contributions to President Obama – Video

A Washington D.C. reporter has been suspended for daring to accurately report the fact that President Barack Obama is the single largest receiver of donations from Oil Company BP. Below is his report, and then details on his suspension from Big Journalism:

Big Journalism: WJLA-TV, a Washington, D.C. ABC affiliate, suspended reporter Doug McKelway following his alleged “partisan” comments at a liberal rally on Capitol Hill marking the three-month anniversary of the Gulf oil spill. Video of the broadcast tells a different story.

Apparently facts are now “partisan.”

McKelway stuck to the truth about BP’s political contributions and pending cap-and-trade legislation, newsworthy subjects given that the event’s organizers were lobbying to “pass legislation to end America’s addiction to oil and urged lawmakers to donate campaign money raised from the oil industry to the clean-up efforts in the Gulf.”

According to the Washington Post, it was McKelway’s supposedly controversial comments on July 20 that led to his suspension. Anonymous sources at the station are now accusing him of “insubordination” in an apparent attempt to fire him. . . . Read More

The liberal media is invested in Barack Obama. They are largely responsible for his becoming President. Now, they are doing everything they can to prop him up, and protect him, even as his popularity sags. Good luck to Mr. McKelway – the truth will ultimately prevail, no matter how hard some try to cover it up.
