The Mittness Protection Program: Mitts on R-Money, What IS it you are afraid of from the Media that you have to avoid them?

The mainstream media asks questions, and the mainstream media fact checks answers.

The right wing media is notorious for NOT doing those things, and for not having the same level of journalistic standards.  In the case of Breitbart's organization they have NO journalistic standards.

The problem with the strategy is that the right wing media doesn't reach a lot of people, so the reports that Mitts on R-money is planning to avoid the marjority of the 4th estate suggests he has a less interactive and more devious method for reaching the majority of voters --- those in the center and those on the left.  The premise that organizations like Breitbart's is center right is a joke; the entire right wing media and blogosphere is far right of everyone else, and heading over the horizon and out of sight in their evolving extremism. 

I predict we are watching the rise and immediate fall of any significant role by an exclusively right wing nut media.  If ever there were a repudiation of it, the flight of Rush Limbaugh's advertisers should have been a clue as to what kind of failure THAT is, or the decline of Glenn Beck.

But more to the point - what is it that Romney has to hide from?  Why can't he deal with the mainstream media or their questions?  How weak and pathetic is that?

Just think of the attack ad potential of this little revelation.

If one takes a look at the amount of money Mittens has in hand, it would suggest he is avoiding any sort of challenge, and hoping to persuade entirely on a deluge of lying advertisements, either directly through his campaign or in conjunction with the PACs and SuperPACs.

Do we want a President who is afraid to talk to people that ask questions?  If Mitts on our Money is afraid of reporters, how is he going to deal with leaders of other countries, or for that matter, with leaders of other groups here in the U.S.?

He can't be relying on the Drudge Report to communicate with Putin, or Hollande, or Merkel; although arguably the Murdoch Media might be a good way to communicate with Cameron in the UK.

Mitt Romney's Campaign Admits to Avoiding Mainstream Media

Submitted by Michael Allen on Jul 2, 2012

In an interview with Breitbart.com, Romney campaign spokesman Lenny Alcivar revealed the campaign’s plan to largely ignore the mainstream media journalists in favor of right-wing web sites.
From the beginning of the campaign, Romney has often avoided news outlets that might pose tough questions. The press called it “the Mittness Protection Program.”
Alcivar recently explained how the campaign will avoid journalists and communicate their message through Brietbart.com and the Drudge Report, which are far-right websites that reguarly post conspiracy theories such as the 'birther' movement:
When this election is over, one of the lessons that will be learned by the mainstream media is that they no longer have a toe-hold on how Americans receive their news. Never before – in a way that has taken Democrats off stride – have we seen the confluence of an aggressive online community, led by Breitbart, and an aggressive campaign team not willing to cede an inch of ground to Democrats.
This combination has created a new political reality. We no longer allow the mainstream media to define the political realities in America. The rise of Breitbart, Drudge and others, combined with an aggressive Romney campaign is a powerful tool in the arsenal of the conservative movement.
…The governor will no longer allow the mainstream media to dictate the terms of this debate. This is just the beginning… We are witnessing the rise of the center right media.

Really? What a laugh.  It would be funny if it were not so corruptly partisan.
