Lou Dobbs is right! Again!

CNN's Lou Dobbs had a commentary about how most of the maintream media is covering the illegal immigration issue:
"And the mainstream media are complicit in advancing this thinly veiled blanket amnesty. Instead of asking and answering important questions about why our immigration laws aren't being enforced and why we're permitting pervasive document fraud, the national media seem hell-bent on trying to obfuscate the issue, shamelessly playing with language, equating legal immigration with illegal immigration while obviously trying to preserve the illusion of objectivity."- Lou Dobbs

The You Tube footage of a cameraman for KPRC an NBC affiliate seems to bear that out. You have to wonder what kind of newsroom ethics and feelings about illegal immigration occur in the Newsroom of stations like KPRC that allow a news gathering cameraman to feel that it ok to fly the flag of another country like Mexico while covering a demonstration on illegal immigration. It should make the American public wonder that perhaps as Lou Dobbs points out that they may not be giving us the whole story.
