Well, the shoe is on the other foot it appears. Some of the biggest media critics are as of this moment completely silent concerning the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfgate.com\/cgi-bin\/article.cgi?f=\/c\/a\/2011\/10\/27\/BAD61LN3LM.DTL\">Marine who was severely wounded during the police crackdown<\/a> on protesters at the Occupy Oakland protest.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing to be seen on <a href=\"http:\/\/drudgereport.com\/\">Drudge<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing to be seen on <a href=\"http:\/\/pjmedia.com\/instapundit\/\">Instapundit<\/a>.  <\/p>\n<p>No mention of the injured Marine on either site.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>At least FOX News is covering it. Nice lengthy coverage too! Headline:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/story\/0,2933,299238,00.html\">Outrage Grows Over Marine Mistreatment<\/a>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;at Oakland Airport?<\/p>\n<p>WTF?<\/p>\n<p>Oh, here it is:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/story\/0,2933,299152,00.html\">Marine Mistreatment at Oakland Airport Unacceptable<\/a><\/p>\n<p>No&#8230; Crap. That is still the old story.<\/p>\n<p>OK. OK. I found it. Sort of. It&#8217;s not FOX News, but a link from <a href=\"http:\/\/nation.foxnews.com\/occupy-wall-street\/2011\/10\/27\/iraq-war-vet-injured-occupy-oakland-clash\">FOX Nation<\/a>, which features video from the local Fox affiliate.<\/p>\n<p>Note: If they have covered this as extensively as they did the Oakland Airport incident, I will update and modify this post accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>PS. Just to be sure no one confuses me for a liberal, which has been happening quite a bit lately, I am on record also blasting the media for its biased coverage against Conservatives. But, I believe fair is fair, and Conservatives should be held to account for displaying the same biases in their coverage, or in this case, non-coverage of news events.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/share-medium.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Google Plus\",\"Pinterest\",\"Linkedin\",\"StumbleUpon\",\"Digg\",\"Reddit\",\"Bebo\",\"Delicious\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"From%20The%20%22Where%27s%20Waldo%22%20File\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div><p>When do Conservative news outlets shy away from covering a news story?
