Media, objectivity and hypocrisy.

A few weeks ago there were over one hundred protests against the Obamacare order for Catholic hospitals to cover birth control. For some reason that wasn't given much coverage in the objective, mainstream media. Now what do I find this in my Houston Chronicle this morning.

Nuns begin protest of GOP budget plan

DES MOINES, Iowa — A group of Roman Catholic nuns began a nine-state bus tour protesting proposed federal budget cuts Monday, saying they weren’t trying to flout recent Vatican criticisms of socially active nuns but felt called to show how Republican policies are affecting low-income families.

The tour was organized by Network, a Washing-ton-based Catholic social justice group criticized in a recent Vatican report that said some organizations led by nuns have focused too much on economic injustice while failing to promote the church’s teachings on abortion and same-sex marriage. The Vatican asked U.S. bishops to look at Network’s ties to another group of nuns it is reorganizing because of what the church calls “serious doctrinal problems.”...

...While the nuns say they aren’t opposing any specific Republican candidate, they plan stops at the offices of several closely tied to the budget process, including House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio, and Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan, the architect of the House-passed budget. Their first stop Monday was Rep. Steve King’s office in Ames. The tour will end in Washington on July 2...

Thousands protest Obama nationwide for a blatantly unconstitutional infringement on the Right of Religion and for some reason AP doesn't really concern themselves. Yet a handful of nuns protest not federal budget policy but Republican budget cuts and they can send a crew to make a make up story on it. Not that they have ever done this before.

And the media wonders why their reputation is lowere than that of politicians and lawyers.
