Wisconsin Dem Assemblyman Tells GOP Assemblywoman 'You Are F--king Dead,' Media Mum | NewsBusters.org

A Wisconsin Democrat Assemblyman turned to a Republican Assemblywoman in the middle of a legislative session Friday and said, "You are f--king dead."

Despite the following report from the Northwestern at 12:53 PM Monday, no major media outlet other than Fox News has covered this disgusting story


Is this the new tone of civility? Once again the MSM proves that "its ok when Democrats do it". Imagine if a Republican had said this. It would be on every station as proof of how backwards and extreme Republicans are.

This likely would have been the lead story for all three broadcast evening news programs as well as the focus of every hour of reporting on CNN and MSNBC with calls for Hintz's resignation.

But much like what happened at ABC's town hall meeting when a survivor of the Giffords shootings said "You are dead" to a Tea Party leader in the audience, our media clearly don't care when liberals publicly threaten conservatives.

Now this standard extends to a male Democrat elected official vulgarly assaulting a female Republican on an Assembly floor.

Makes one think it's journalism that's bleeping dead!

Don't want to get into politics here, and I would be the first to agree that the media is biased on both sides of the political spectrum; but do you really think Newsbusters.org is a viable unbiased news organization to be quoting as fact. Maybe the other news organizations would have ran with this, had it been a factual event, which I suspect it isn't.

Just something to consider.

Peace,
Sensai

Well, there were dozens of threads based on completely made up accusations of violence and extremism from the tea party/GOP. Especially after that shooting in Arizona. This is like the 5th Democrat to call for violence or make violent threats and like all the others its gone completely ignored by the same people who cried wolf before.

Here is something for you to consider. If you had actually read the article instead of replying emotionally, you would have seen that the story has been confirmed. The Democrat in question released an apology. I don't blame you though. Most of you play dumb until the MSM triggers your outrage for you.

http://www.thenorthw...|text|FRONTPAGE

Rep. Gordon Hintz, D-Oshkosh, called Rep. Michelle Litjens, R-Winneconne, Monday morning to apologize for his comments that Litjens described as containing an obscenity and the words “you’re dead.” Last week, he accepted responsibility for being issued an ordinance violation for visiting a massage parlor in Appleton that was the subject of a prostitution sting.


You'll notice the article didn't actually print the exact quote. They sterilized it for the Democrat by leaving out the "you're fucking" part.

I think its you who aren't interested in the facts. You came in to this thread just to troll me and not comment at all on the topic, or read the op so you had all the facts. Do you know the difference between "propaganda" and reality? I don't think you do and it shows because you still don't get why I post this stuff.

Just look at these threads and compare to the total lack of outrage you'll see here. Hypocrites, most all of you.

If I walked up to a politician and said, "You are fucking dead"

I would probably get shot? :confused:


Fuck the dems, fuck the repubs, they can all kill each other and make America a better place.

You do admit the mass media has a total double standard? They don't report this stuff when it comes from Democrats. They definitely don't make it their lead story for months and years like they do with Republicans/tea parties/conservatives/right wingers and these forums definitely don't get nearly as outraged.

your one sided approach to politics is a joke....and you want people to listen to your dribble..

you dismiss anyone else as uninformed and/or uncaring if they do not bend over to except YOUR views (and those of your chosen masters, the repugs)...

I'll pay attention, and take your post seriously, when you recover from your biased brain washing and see that your masters are as bad as all other politicians...in any country.;)

OHHHH some guy tells a lady to go die and no news covers it while hundred of people are shot and killed in the streets and its also not covered, big deal. Let that guy be a dick, its his job anyway isnt it

I embrace my desire to
feel the rhythm, to feel connected
enough to step aside and weep like a widow
to feel inspired, to fathom the power,
to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,
to swing on the spiral
of our divinity and still be a human.

Of course the MSM has a total double standard. It's as much their fault as is it the people's. They tell the people what the people want to hear. I won't be surprised if the double standard and reporting switches sides in the next presidential election. If republicans come back in because America thinks, "hmm democrat didn't work... only answer... exact opposite party... GOGOGO REPUBLICANS!!!"

Drone...I don't think anyone on here watches MSM news, or at least I hope they don't! LOL

You might be able to get a better reaction by writing a blog, protesting, writing all of your representatives, volunteering for campaigns you believe in, passing out information on the street, etc etc etc.

Just a thought to better focus your energy. I know that the media is biased, I hope that by now no one takes them at their word.

Lol the key aspect to the story that was omitted, the lady had just collapsed dead on the floor then he said "YOUR FUCKIN DEAD OMG OMG CALL 911" they left the 2nd half of the statement also omitted

I can understand his anger with the way in which the vote happened, but this is uncalled for. Be angry, but be civil, you're an elected official for fucks sake. I thought I was going to respect him because of his passionate rant last week, but now with this and prostitution scandal, I just can't do it.
