Idiot Soup: Shilling for Communists

Cuba, Lybia, Sadsam's Iraq... all recipients of the Drive-By Media's unending devotion to providing propaganda for tyrants and communists. Now with the Olympics, China gets moved up the A-list in an all out disinformation effort to show Americans how great and wonderful it is to live under the thumb of tyrants in Chicago, make that China.

According to Newsbusters:


"NBC's Matt Lauer pointed out a poll that showed the Chinese are happier than Americans and repeated his line that protestors could be seen as "party crashers," on Tuesday's "Today" show.

During an interview with NBC News China analyst, Joshua Cooper Ramo, Lauer pointed made the following observation:

LAUER: There's a recent poll that said some very high percentage of the people in China are happy with their lot in life. Something around 80 percent. You compare that to polls in the United States that say only about 25 percent of Americans are, what's the root of their happiness here?"

Matt would probably act happy too if it would keep him out of a re-education camp, communist prison or worse.
