Mainstream media wants Weiner, not serious policy issues

By Joé McKen at 8:46 PM ET | »

Just in case you thought you’d seen it all when it comes to the corporate-owned mainstream media whoring itself out to the cheap thrill of sensationalism over actual issues, watch how they all breathlessly awaited House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s expected statements regarding the (former-)Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) “sex scandal”, only to shamelessly cut away to prattle on like gossiping housewives at a hair salon when Pelosi declares that the conference about jobs and Medicare and other such actual issues will not, in fact, be touching on the ex-congressman’s junk:

How remarkably pathetic.
