Greg Gutfeld: Cutter was right, there’s ‘no difference between the news press and the entertainment press’

On Monday’s broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “The Five,” co-host Greg Gutfeld said Obama deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter wasn’t that far off when she told CNN’s “State of the Union” that entertainment media outlets and national press outlets are equally important.

Gutfeld explained that Hollywood, and by extension the Hollywood press, both want Obama re-elected.

“The reason Obama prefers Tinseltown rags to national press is simple: If Hollywood is the propaganda arm of the Democratic Party, then the Hollywood press is the propaganda arm for the propaganda arm,” Gutfeld said.

“It’s just another vehicle to make a political disaster tastier to a dismayed public,” said Gutfeld “And since entertainment hacks must kiss the stars’ behind to survive they must embrace the pet causes, too. Before it was global warming, but now it’s Obama, who is bigger than the globe. It’s another Obama first — a U.S. president who finds the job too local for him. Be honest, Jasper [‘The Five’ co-host Dana Perino’s dog] knows more about politics than the Hollywood act. Look at him.”

    This is the ONLY thing that would qualify obama as Commander In Chief. Propaganda is a military tactic.

    THAT’S what was wrong with The Five last week. No Greg–no anti venom for Beckel.

    What was he doing. Licking his balls?

    I’d like to sit down with a major network news anchor and ask how it felt when they realized they could show their bias blatantly. And there were no repercussions at all.

    It had to be a strain all those years trying to conceal. So they kept pushing a little more every year.

    They actually thought we didn’t notice. Or maybe they thought we hadn’t already written them off as an actual source of journalism.

    They were wrong in both cases.
