Bias nature of the media

This election year has played a powerful role in every aspect of people’s lives. Working as a manager with the McCain/ Palin campaign for Pike County, I have seen all types of people coming to our headquarters- Republicans, Democrats, Independents, Local business owners, etc. I am very proud of those residents who choose to visit us at headquarters to get additional information on the candidates. With the bias nature of the media, it has become difficult for people get the facts of the campaign. I am an adult who has returned to college and am appalled at the biasness of even the college professors. As an example, my communication professor whose job it is to work with students on communication factors for interviewing and speaking with people, etc. has spent 8 weeks creating classroom biased Democrat debates on key issues of the election. Week #1 was on a “survey” for those choosing to vote. Week #2 was on stem cell research, Week #3 on the alternative energy, etc. I have another professor that I have received 12 essay papers with grades no less than an A- from. Last week I turned in an opinion paper on my point of view on Obama being president and got a “D”. Needless to say, I found out the hard way that my professor was a Democrat. I actually got a chuckle out of it. My point is only that I encourage people to do their homework before the election. Stop by and visit headquarters next to Milford Chrysler Dealership on Route 209 in Milford. If you are unable to get to the polls, call Headquarters at 570-832-1756 to arrange for a driver to pick you up or have an absentee ballot mailed to your home. Please don’t give up your right to vote. Lynn Homer Matamoras
