The truth about this elec­tion will like­ly not be revealed until much lat­er in this week, not because the media are churn­ing up the elec­tion results they want to see either.

Ear­li­er today we noticed some­thing real­ly strange.

Polit­i­cal Pun­dits Pon­tif­i­cat­ing on the state of the elec­tion.

They were actually making statements like

“Too Close to call”

I thought about that for a sec­ond because this was at 9 AM the polls were bare­ly open and we have peo­ple in the media mak­ing state­ments about how a race is pro­gress­ing with­out any­thing to back up those state­ments, (no exit polling, not that those polls ever are real­ly accu­rate any­way) So what right do the media have to begin to call elec­tions and races in var­i­ous states as too close to call any­way?

Where in the con­sti­tu­tion does it give the media the right to call elec­tions in states over in the first place?

It real­ly makes you won­der where and how they received this dis­pen­sa­tion of pow­er, was it from the Amer­i­can Peo­ple?

No…

What about the Con­sti­tu­tion?

No again…

So, this real­ly puz­zles me most­ly because the media are not even in charge of the elec­tions and can we all say, Thank God in Heav­en that is the truth.

This does not stop the media from using psy­cho­log­i­cal tech­niques to try to influ­ence vot­ers, that is just plain wrong…

Yet no one does a thing.

No one stands up and says Hey, what do you think you are doing?

The media needs to stay out of the elec­tion process, they need to report facts, Not edu­cat­ed guess­es, Not the opin­ions of oth­ers.

The media have been sub­vert­ing the process of the elec­tion for a num­ber of years now and it is time for that non­sense to stop.

The press should be free to report the facts how­ev­er that free­dom does not extend to exert­ing undue influ­ence on an elec­tion process.

They should not be “Call­ing” Elec­tions that is the job of the state in which the elec­tion takes place is it not?

We have relied on the press to report the truth how­ev­er the truth is NOT what the press are report­ing any longer.

Per­haps it is time that each state begin to announce its own elec­tion results.

If the press and the cor­po­rate run media can­not keep its grub­by paws off the elec­tion results and stop twist­ing facts not in evi­dence per­haps it may be time to vis­it this in a leg­isla­tive way.

Fac­tu­al Report­ing is good.

Report­ing Opin­ion as Fact is not good, Call­ing an elec­tion before the polls close?

Not Good at all.

Amer­i­cans are not stu­pid and the only ones that are fooled are usu­al­ly the fools, how­ev­er it is time that the media begin to report the facts and noth­ing but the facts, else make cer­tain that when opin­ion is offered that they state that up front.

Peo­ple need to be warned when the media begin to play games with the way they report the news.
