Why has the press ignored a possible assassination attempt on Lou Dobbs?

Three weeks ago, CNN host Lou Dobbs and his wife survived a drive-by shooting at their home in New Jersey. At the time of the attack, Dobbs’ wife was outside of the home, standing in the driveway.

On October 26, Dobbs discussed the shooting on his radio show. Dobbs told his listeners that he has received countless death threats and has been forced to hire bodyguards.

While the attack is still under investigation by the New Jersey State Police, there is a great deal of speculation that it was committed, or at least incited by someone from one of the many illegal alien advocacy groups which continuously call for Dobbs to be fired from CNN.

Of course, Dobbs has been at the forefront of the illegal immigration issue as well as educating the public on Mexico’s ongoing drug war. His “Open Border” segments on his CNN show are not only embarrassing to both the U.S. and Mexican governments, but to groups such as MECHA, LULAC, La Raza, and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus who all push for amnesty for the millions of illegal aliens currently inside the U.S.

Along with the aforementioned ethnocentric rights groups, Fox News personality Geraldo Rivera has joined the chorus calling Dobbs a racist, and anti-Hispanic. Those claims are truly preposterous given the fact that Dobbs is married to a Mexican-American woman.

Dobbs is married to Debbie Segura who is a former CNN sports anchor. The couple has four children together.

With the exception of Dobbs‘ own show, the shooting at his home has received no coverage. Why would the press ignore such a story?

The following is a short list of possible reasons:

1) Dobbs has been highly critical of President Obama, and is the only mainstream media personality who has publicly discussed the as yet resolved issue of Obama’s birth certificate.

2) Dobbs’s reporting was instrumental in defeating the 2007 McCain/Kennedy Amnesty Bill. Illegal alien advocacy groups had pinned their hopes to so-called ‘comprehensive immigration reform,’ and were livid with Dobbs’ daily exposure of that bill’s actual agenda.

3) Dobbs took the lead in the coverage of the persecution of Border Patrol Agents Ramos and Compean. The pair was prosecuted by U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton, and spent two years in prison for pursuing and shooting a Mexican drug smuggler.

Dobbs’ coverage of this case made many Americans begin to question the true agenda of our federal government and their commitment to defending the border.

4) Dobbs has consistently railed against globalism, political correctness, amnesty for illegal aliens, the validity of man-made global warming, and the government takeover of American industry…All of which have been embraced and promoted by the mainstream media.

The fact that the press cannot bring themselves to report on a major story, when a national figure has been the target of a drive-by shooting, simply because that figure has decided to report the truth and ask hard questions rather than push propaganda, it is sad state of affairs.

If newspapers such as the New York Times and network news departments want to know why no one pays attention to them any longer, this story shouts the grave answer loudly and clearly.

We have a corrupt mainstream press which meets in private with their own invention (President Obama), discussing ways to convince the American people that he truly is our savior, and fails to report stories on crime and corruption that could cast one group or another in a bad light.

For the mainstream press, journalism is truly dead.

    I wonder why they felt that this criminal aproach was necessary? If anyone has been paying attention to Lou Dobbs TV program lately, they'll see that through the rantings of the pro-illegal groups or CNN itself, Lou has been gagged. He always referred to those here without papers as "illegal aliens." Now, he says "illegal immigrants," when he mentions them at all. The change has been so noticeable, I figured La Raza, Geraldo and the rest of the rest of those who approve of crime would be staisfied. However,it wasn't enough to put his job in danger. They decided to show their true colors (excuse the pun), and tried to literally erase he and his family from the world. I hope they catch the person who did this and prosecute to the fullest extent of the law. But in the climate of crime in which this country exists, it probably won't happen. I wrote to CNN asking them to fire Lou Dobbs, and then to Fox, asking that they hire him and let him get back to representing the American people.

    Although I do NOT like Geraldo---do not try to blame it on him---as "they" can then use the same argument against Beck, O'Reilly, etc.

    However--La Raza, MECHA, etc. have been after Lou for a LONG time. Go to www.cnn.com "contact us" and send an email in support of Lou.

    Lou also speaks out through his radio show www.loudobbs.com

    La Raza, Maldef, etc, all want Dobbs dead. I would not put it past them to have arranged some of their open border's gang affiliants to shoot up the house as a warning. The Brown Beret's are a possible source as well. These people mean business and anyone that doesn't get it will be mowed down too. I have delt with those thugs, anything is possible from them.
    The reason the MSM ignored the story is because it would also require them to publicize Lou's border positions and they do not want those ideas heard. Kill the messenger, kill the story.

    I was unaware that this had happened to Lou Dobbs. Yes, it's obvious that his critics must really feel threatened. This shows that Lou Dobbs is making inroads regarding waking up Americans to what is going on regarding illegal aliens and open borders. Sad to say it doesn't surprise me that the MSM is quiet about what happened---after all they are beholden to "The Chosen One". We must take our country back! If we don't, I really worry about what this country will be like for my grandkids!

    Janet Marguia and LaRaza, in tandem with the SEIU, have taken over this administration. Their mantra is they "won the presidency for Obama" when, in fact, stats prove that Obama would have defeated McCain even if not one Latino had voted for him.
    The attempted threat on Dobb's life proves to me, once and for all, that we must disband dangerous groups such as LaRaza, ACLU, and SEIU. In the interim every effort should be made to arrest and charge every and any one invovlved in this attempted murder and charge them with a hate crime. Wonder what the hypocritical SPLC has to say about these Latino groups threatening the life of a Caucasian American?

    Now the illegal invasion has truly come full circle! Sooner or later, this was bound to happen. I had no idea! We can thank the msm...for NOTHING! Thank God Lou and his family are ok, but this is a pox upon America...one that the current administration just may have something to do with. I smell Chicago/La Raza tactis here! But whatever and whomever is behind this violence, it's totally unacceptable. This should have been all over the news! Law enforcement MUST step-up on behalf of Mr. Dobbs, and shame on the Feds for ignoring such a blatant attack on an American family! Hey, California! MEG WHITMAN just loudly declared her SUPPORT of amnesty for illegals...WRITE HER OFF as a gubernatorial candidate! Let's reconsider and get behind Tom Campbell! Go to his website and see how he feels about amnesty & American citizenship.

    Maybe Geraldo should be charged with a Hate Crime as well as La Raza and their cohorts in crime. The last thing Dobbs should do is be quiet. All of us should write and call FOX and demand the firing of Geraldo for inciting the death of Lou Dobbs and his family! Hispanics, La Raza and all wanted the Hate Crimes bill to silence everyone but them. Let's turn the table and accuse them and Geraldo of Hate Crimes! www.wnd.com covered this story.

    I am a blue eyed American blonde haired boy. I was kicked out of a public hate summit put on by Lori Saldana. I work in the media and because I asked someone if they were a volunteer, I was thrown out immediately, although I was there on behalf of a major San Diego TV news organization. With words like you are going to use this hate summit against me, and my words against me.
    Well if this hate summit was not about promoting hate then there is no way I could use that against them. I was a victim of abuse, and hate by the staff of Lori Saldana. Why is it the people who scream about trying to stop hate promote it more then fix it?
    This is America, the right to free speech is one of the reasons that all these people come here for. Then they want to hate you for your rights and freedoms. There is no room for violence in this country. No matter how you do it, the only way this will ever get fixed is to TALK ABOUT IT. NOT SHOOT TO KILL. Lori I should have arrested you and your staff HATE

    JC: good remarks. I just read on another site that they are increasing security for lots of other Americans (even including Sheriff Joe) who are standing up to the reconquistas. The invaders have brought their uncivilized behavior here to the point that personal safety is paramount. Keep yourself armed at all times, everywhere. If you cannot legally carry a firearm thenemploy the next best thing;knife,spiked key chain, mace, or a spray bottle of ammononia.
