Bias in the Media..?

This is an interesting reply I recieved from my last post:

"Bryson Denson from the Oregonian, Reports when there are ALF attacks on organizations and people as long as the name isn't Schumacher. When ALF attacked Schumachers, he turned his head the other way just like the city and its officials and the landlord. Keep writing Skott. Hope to see you at KFC "

Now, I don't know this Denson person, honestly I won't read the Oregonian...far as I'm concerned I get more actual information from the Weekly World News or even the other two rags around here. But this doesn't suprise me in the least. The Oregonian has proven itself to be on the side of the lunatics around here. I heard they reported that the 'actual' reason Gregg Schumacher shut his store down was due to some sort of 'family feud.' And I'm sure the sheep around here bought it.
And, through the wonder of the Internet...I have found the ARTICLE. And, oh, my...it's written by (dramatic pause) Bryson Denson!

Under the headline "Feud, not protesters, fueled fall of Schumacher Furs" and dated Sunday, July 15, 2007, Denson opens with:

A story passed through Portland last winter, and it went like this: Mobs of rowdy, profane, sometimes topless animal-rights activists demonstrated so often at the doorstep of a century-old fur salon that they ran the business out of town.
Many Portlanders, including business leaders, were outraged by this collision of old values and new sensibilities. How, they wondered, could anti-fur activists get away with destroying a venerable institution that had stood since 1895?
But it turns out the tale was more fable than fact.

Of course, he forgot to add 'threatening, obscene, intimidating, harassing and anti-Business" to his list of words to describe Matt's Ass-Hats. But beyond that I have to wonder, where was this guy, this so-called reporter, all the time this story was going on? He seems to have done something that, at least, resembles research on the Schumacher Family as he seems to have all this 'information' on the supposed feud between Gregg and his brother, Mark. I've linked to the article and will consider posting it here for continued display.
But here's my question: If this guy had all this information and 'knew' this feud was the 'real reason' the store closed...where was he? Seems to me the impact of exposing the apparent lies of someone in an effort to hide a supposed failing business would be like blood in shark filled water to people like this Denson guy. So...why didn't he 'blow the lid' on this story right in the middle of the controversy?
Simple.
It's bullshit.

I've noted reasons the Schumachers had to close their store down and it makes total sense. Hell, I'm not even a real reporter...wouldn't want to be since I have a backbone...and I figured it out.
Now, are there hard feelings between Gregg and Mark? Honestly...who gives a shit? If it were the reason then it would have come out right in the middle of all this.
So, here's what I think:
This 'reporter' has a soft spot in his heart...and his head...for the protesters. Why else would he suddenly have this story? I mean, if this was something that was happening last year, and the story says the feud was going since about 2004, then damn, why not break the story and protect the poor protesters? CAUSE IT'S BULLSHIT!

Here's the proof, Denson ends his article with the following:
15 months of protests
For years, anti-fur crusaders raised a ruckus outside Schumacher Fur Co. on the day after Thanksgiving, then mostly left the family business alone.
Gregg's new business wasn't so lucky. Protesters showed up on Nov. 12, with no plans to knock off until after the holidays. Gregg set concert-sized speakers outside his salon, drowning out protesters' chants with such tunes as "Here Comes Santa Claus." A window sign -- a spoof on those carried by demonstrators -- suggested they be, among other things, anally electrocuted.

Mention of the mythic sigh! Yeah, I know...'what sign?' Well, Matt's assmonkeys had a sign that read something like people who kill animals should be, 'among other things, anally electrocuted.' as Denson puts it. So, Gregg, being the kind of guy he is PARODIED the sign and replaced a word or two with protesters or animal-rights activists or something and posted it in his stores windows. Now, I've been hunting for a picture of this sign because, honestly, I think it's funny as hell!
So, Denson didn't mention that the sign was a parody of a rather nasty sign that was originally used by Rossell and his friends and was aimed directly at the Schumachers and anyone else who likes animals for pets, food and outerwear.

Now, I know I show a bias here when I post thing but that's alright. I'm simply posting my opinion. This guy is claiming to be a reporter and claims to be reporting fact, not opinion. But there is nothing in his story to suggest anything he printed is true. Other than his inability to be honest.
