News appears to be underplaying Goldman Fraud Charges - But didn't Tiger Woods & Massa!

[FrenchieCat]

Watching CNN and MSNBC, seems like Volcano and anything other than Goldman Sachs is getting
more airplay.

When it was Tiger Woods story, that was 24/7 for months.
When it was Massa, that was 24/7 for at least 3 days.

Somehow, it appears that this story is being subdued by the media.

Why is that?

Weren't Teabaggers created especially to rail against Banks and bankers?

So why is the media being so gentle on what is happening right now, if it points
that maybe some may get their just desserts after all?

I find the coverage of this big news which brought the Markets down at one point
as much as 140+ points very Interesting.

1. I don't know much about this story yet. They mentioned on the news

Goldman-Sachs getting busted, but the story was over before I finished cheering.

while taking notes.

3. Guy that comes on at 1PM on CNN did a decently long segment on it with his 2 commentators

...he seemed to think it was a big deal - was going to have them on later to follow up as they learned more.

4. Because we can't have the " investor class " getting too nervous....

Yeah, the M$M is pretty selective when it comes to reporting what's actually important as opposed to the hysteria inducing and shock value diversions and distractions that they just LOVE to report; it keeps them in big money and job security, and to hell with actual journalism and news.

Those teabaggers and that screeching Palin woman are what bring in rating$, not real news, especially not real news about any real reform going on, God fobid! Tiger Woods is just one more lovely distraction......

5. Haha! CNBC is calling this politically motivated!

Like duh. Seems like the Bail outs was the government bailing out the banks.
Seems like everything on wall street these days is directly related to politics.
What do these fools think brought the teabaggers to overexposure? Were they
complaining about politics and walls street converging? HA!

6. Where was the gaggle of geese during the Financial Criisis?? I did

not see them "camped out" near Wall Street.

Heck they hounded Tigers Tiny Kids>

Of course bullies always know who not to pick on.

7. CNBC is in panic mode over it

It is funny to watch

8. Because maybe they already know this story won't last long

And won't result in a major change. Even with the rare chance Goldman Sachs goes down hard, there will be another Wall Street group to replace it. The problem is the Wall Street culture, companies like Goldman merely are a product of said culture.

9. Ok, cynical cynic you.

10. Teabaggers were created to rail against

President Obama.

The carnival barkers at corporatewhore central are assisting their whore cohorts in keeping it on the downlow.

14. Everybody's fingers are in Goldman's pie

You won't see anything lasting come out of an investigation. Too many asses to cover.
