It's Hitting News Anchors

And they don't know why. Dusty Saunders, who writes about the media, says Denver 9News Anchor Bob Kendrick is being "let go" because he's being paid too much. Actually, he's being fired because he, and others in the news biz think it "should not be about ratings," completely forgetting that "ratings" is what PAYS their excessively high salaries. They THINK it's because of the "economy." But that's a convenient "straw man" to mask what it REALLY is: viewers who are tired of all the liberal drivel spouted from news rooms. Saunders says Kendrick was fired "80% because of money," which is 100% wrong. He was fired because ALL liberal media sources are suffering a significant loss of business as people get tired of their liberal bias and turn them off. This has been happening since long before the "economic crunch" they're blaming. Media these days just do NOT "check their sources" to see if what they're reporting is the truth. Now Kendrick is "livid" about Saunder's article saying he made $400,000 a year, saying Saunders "made up" the figure "out of whole cloth." He should know about that. Maybe if the news biz got back in the truth biz, they'd do better. (Rocky Mountain News)
