The following is an email that was sent to Greta Van Susteren as well as some of the conservative media who more and more act like those at MSNBC, Huff-n-Puff Post and DailyKos. Reporting half truths and only what one feels will promote their agenda rather than the whole story makes the likes of Malkin, O'Reilly, Hannity, Beck, FOX News, no different than MSNBC's Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow, etc....
I am sending Mr. Beck an email that will also be posted here. The reason being is that after watching Glenn Beck Yesterday and viewing past shows, I believe it is only fair to call him on some "lies" he has told recently all in the interest of protecting his image. "Speak without fear..." but yet all of these media personalities continue to display fear and bias.
In the past two years I have learned something about the media that is undeniable: Most are so full of themselves that they intentionally refuse to report things just because their ego's were bruised by someone else.
Let it be known here and now by all, those Book reviews you read in the papers and magazines, they are nothing more than paid advertisements. I say this because 96% of the Book reviewers on the media list file I put up at http://www.larrysinclair.com require payment of money to write reviews!!! Even an Associated Press reporter admitted without a large payment to the AP you have no chance to get a book reviewed!

Subject: 1-4-10 On The Record
Importance: High
Dear Mrs. Van Susteren:
I wanted to tell you that the 1‐4‐2010 On The Record finally broached a subject on the Obama Care Bill that I have tried to get people like you to address for some time. In Griff Jenkins piece in Lincoln, NE the mother who stated that she is unable to go to the Doctors/Medical Clinics she needs to because they do not take Medicaid is just the tip of a larger issue the media (including On The Record) continues to ignore.
Not only will the estimated 20 million Americans to be added to Medicaid find it difficult to find Doctors to accept Medicaid, they will also find they must travel to other cities to have simple lab work done.
I know you do not listen to anything I send to you. But I am on Medicaid, and my own doctor tells me Medicaid tells him not to order medical procedures that I need. I have a torn left rotator cuff that requires me to see an orthopedic surgeon. Problem is, Medicaid requires me to travel from Port Orange (Daytona Beach, FL) some 300+ miles south to Miami because that is the only one Medicaid uses for patients in this area.
I hope you will actually start reporting these little facts the Senate and House and White House fail to mention. When Medicaid patients have to travel to other counties and cities to doctors, Medicaid transports more than 97% of those patients (either by medical shuttle services or cab companies), costs that no one talks about. With the proposed reduction in Medicaid payments to Doctors, even fewer doctors are going to be accepting Medicaid.
Second:
I have a question for you (even though I know you will not answer it). Why did you on June 18, 2008 on Greta wire link to a story from Politico’s Ben Smith saying “he has no credibility,” yet you interview and defend wealthy ex‐felons? So a former FBI agent who illegally uses databases to run checks on a citizen is credible and trustworthy?
You are a lawyer, and yes I know people say Obama is smart to not respond to my Public claims against him. But have you ever thought Obama and Axelrod’s silence might be more to keep from being exposed and me proven to be the one telling the truth?
As I said last year, you have the right to chose who you want to interview or not. But FOX (you, Hannity, O’Reilly, Beck, and that Obama promoter Shep Smith etc…) are no different than Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews and Rachel Madcow. You only report what “you” think the American people should know. That is not “We report, you decide.”
I do know that you received the copy of the book I sent you. I also know that several of the people in that Book are friends of yours. But as I told you in D.C. on 5‐31‐08, I have no need to lie about anything, including myself or my past actions. But you took distorted and misrepresented claims provided to Ben Smith by a bunch of internet thugs, hackers, and Obama idiots and posted them on your site.
I hope you are solid enough to admit you were wrong when in the end it is demonstrated I have been telling the truth the whole time.
Hope you have a great New Year, and I do still catch On The Record now and then. Maybe one day you and your coworkers will start truly reporting the news and stop reporting just what you think people need to know. It is interesting to watch so many people talk about how people make mistakes and deserve second chances but then you misrepresent peoples past so you can get out of being honest with the American people yourselves.
I hope to see you in D.C. in 2011 should I be so fortunate as to win the U.S. Congress seat for Florida’s 24th congressional District.
Thank you,
