Here is a token piece of evidence that the main streem media is condoning anti social behavior:
West Point officials barred

A Wrentham high school’s refusal to allow West Point officials to congratulate two student appointees at a school banquet has sparked outrage among parents and politicians who are calling the decision "shameful" and "sad."........... "It’s shameful they’re taking this position with a U.S. military academy," said William’s proud father, Alan Small. "I think as educators they have done a good job, but I disagree with this."

Small and Chin received nominations from their congressmen as well as U.S. Sens. John Kerry and Edward M. Kennedy. Both students spent their entire high school careers building their resumes to win a shot at West Point, which has offered acceptance to about 1,300 of the 13,000 students who started the grueling application process
.

Did you observe how the student's were defended and the school villanized?
Notice the near total voide of facts?
Notice how the student's infractions were not mentioned?

Here is what they did:
Senior unloads 2 tons of sh!t on high school
WKMG-TV 6 Orlando | Submitted by: Tim Howard

"A Wrentham high school senior has admitted to creating a stink outside his school, dumping 2 tons of horse manure on the curb. But police and King Philip Regional High School officials are still looking for the perpetrators who spray-painted walls with profanity, threw paint on doors, plugged 50 or so door locks with toothpicks, glue and ketchup, and stuck plastic utensils in the grass, in an apparent senior class prank."

And the school's actions are "shamefull" and "sad"!?! Now if that isn't calling evil good and good evil, I don't know what is.
 
Fnord!

(no really, it's relevant.)

The mainstream media does it all the time. People, however, do not care. They think it feels nice to be made stupid by television and newspapers written at a 6th-grade reading level. Apparently, Americans are offended by any attempt to make them think or reason at all.
