Media people jump to Obama Administration

Are you still in the dark as to why the big time dying media looks at Obama and the Democrats in such a favorable light. Well, they are all Democrats. Our foundational principle of "Freedom of the Press" does not apply to free and unbiased thought and reporting.

Various estimates have revealed that as many as 90% of the media people are Democrats. It is any wonder that Obama gets a pass on nearly every action and decision made. On the other hand, Bush and nearly all Republicans are taken to task by the media for every action and decision made. Their media are also central players in the Democrat playbook. It is the chapter on the politics of personal destruction.

Below are the names of media people who have jumped from the media to positions in the Democrat administration. This has being tracked by the Media Resource Center.

Ed Chen is now the 16th major media figure to join the Obama administration or aligned unions and left-wing environmental groups. According to Brent Baker, vice president of research at the Media Research Center, the 15 other figures include the following:

Teddy Davis: Former deputy political director for ABC News joined the left-leaning Service Employees International Union, or SEIU. The group endorsed Obama and has worked to advance the president's agenda.

Roberta Baskin: Former senior investigative producer for ABC News' "20/20" and for CBS "48 Hours" chief investigative correspondent left to become senior communications adviser in the Department of Health and Human Service's office of inspector general.

Warren Bass: A Washington Post deputy editor left to become adviser to U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice.

Daren Briscoe: Former Washington reporter for Newsweek became deputy associate director of public affairs for the Office of National Drug Control Policy.

Jay Carney: Former Washington bureau chief for Time magazine who became assistant to the vice president and director of communications for Vice President Joe Biden.

Teddy Davis: Former ABC News deputy political director who became SEIU assistant director of communications.

Linda Douglass: ABC News Washington correspondent and former CBS News reporter who became a senior strategist and senior campaign spokesperson for the Obama campaign. She was also assistant secretary for public affairs at the Department of Health and Human Services and a spokesman for Obama's health reform. Douglass left the Obama administration in April.

Kate Albright-Hanna: Former CNN producer who became "new media" director for the Obama campaign and worked on Obama's transition website.

Peter Gosselin: Los Angeles Times Washington correspondent who became a speechwriter for Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner.

Sasha Johnson: CNN political producer who became press secretary at the Department of Transportation.

Beverley Lumpkin: ABC News Justice Department correspondent who became press secretary at the Justice Department.

Aneesh Raman: CNN Middle East correspondent who worked for the Obama campaign's communication department.

Vijay Ravindran: Chief technology officer for Catalist, a voter database provider for the Obama campaign, became chief digital officer and senior vice president of the Washington Post Company.

Desson Thomson: Former Washington Post film critic became speechwriter for Louis Susman, U.S. ambassador to the Court of St. James (Great Britain).

Rick Weiss: Washington Post science reporter became communications director and senior policy strategist at the White House Office of Science and Technology.

Jill Zuckman: Chicago Tribune Washington correspondent became director of public affairs for the Department of Transportation.

This easy jump to government also explains why Democrats want to silence those in radio and on the internet who present other points of view. When the government "owns" the media, the people are kept in darkness ... the right jack
