As the Obama Reelection Team goes into full attack mode and provides 24/7 coverage of Mitts "47% comment" the same people have all but ignored this comment from Obama when it comes to redistribution of the wealth

The excuses offered have ranged from "we can't verify its authenticity" to "it is changing the subject"

Seems to m, Obama is living up to hs promise to spread the wealth around by using liberal math

He takes from A and gives to B and C

OK Gabby, where has this story been "widely" reported? As of this morning it has been ignored by CBS and NBC. Only ABC mentioned it

MSNBC offered the lame excuse they are unable to verify the "authenticity" of the video

Meanwhile, Mitt's comment has been going on 24/7

The ball is in your court Gabby

Hey Gabby whats wrong? Have you been to busy to respond? Or could it be you can't back up what you posted?

However............





President Obama basically admitted failure when he said that Washington cannot be changed "from the inside," but CNN tried to explain his gaffe on Friday's Early Start while later dumping on Mitt Romney's "47 percent" remarks.

CNN's John Berman insisted "I know what he [Obama] is trying to say there" and political director Mark Preston argued that "What President Obama said was correct." In contrast, Berman later swung at Romney by saying "I think the 47 percent is more than just another gaffe or misspeak."

Friday's New York Times front page featured Jeff Zeleny (pictured) and Jim Rutenberg's "Political Memo" on the "daunting" struggles of the Mitt Romney campaign: "Daunting Path Greets Romney Before Debates – He's Hoping to Change Campaign Dynamic (http://www.nytimes.com/2012/09/21/us/politics/romney-faces-an-uphill-fight-to-win-at-polls.html?ref=todayspaper&pagewanted=all)."
Again the Times focused on the political damage fostered by Mitt Romney's (accurate) statement at a fundraiser that 47 percent of Americans do not pay income taxes. Meanwhile, the Times buried two controversial Obama comments. One is an old audio tape of Obama saying "I actually believe in redistribution," a remark reporter Richard Oppel Jr. actually defended in Thursday's edition (http://www.mrc.org/articles/defending-obama-nytimes-richard-oppel-turns-tables-romney-laments-redistribution-very-rich).

NBC failed to press Obama adviser David Axelrod over the President's remarks about redistribution on Friday, chucking the story out of its news cycle after two full days. In contrast, the networks hammered Mitt Romney for three days over his comments on 47 percent of Americans who don't pay income taxes.

The Today show did find time, however, to cover the "Honey Boo Boo" nickname generator. The reporters laughed on set over each other's "Honey Boo Boo" nicknames.
The "redistribution" tape exited the NBC news cycle after being overshadowed by the media firestorm over Romney's 47 percent comments. As the Media Research Center documented (http://www.debatepolicy.com/blogs/geoffrey-dickens/2012/09/21/abc-cbs-nbc-hype-romney-hidden-camera-tape-bury-obamas-redistribut), the three networks gave 13 times more coverage to the Romney tape versus the video of Obama, and included it in over five times as many stories.

“Game changer,” said NBC’s Brian Williams. “Seismic,” proclaimed ABC’s Diane Sawyer. “Shaken up the race,” announced CBS’s Scott Pelley. Those were the reactions of the Big Three (ABC, CBS, NBC) evening news anchors to the hidden camera tape of Mitt Romney expressing a basic breakdown of voters who weren’t likely to vote for him. What was a simple analysis by Romney of 47 percent of the electorate was turned into a “political earthquake” that threatened to sink the GOP nominee’s chances.
Over three full days of coverage, on the Big Three evening and morning shows, liberal anchors and reporters devoted almost an hour and a half (1 hour, 28 minutes, 23 seconds) to the Romney tape that made up all or a portion of 42 total stories. In contrast, when tape emerged of Barack Obama stating he was in favor of “redistribution” of wealth, reporters barely broached the story, spending only six minutes, 28 seconds over eight stories.
In all the Big Three networks this week devoted about 88 minutes to the Romney tape compared to just six and a half minutes on the Obama clip -- a 13 to 1 ratio.
