National Propaganda Radio: Subject of NPR Obamacare success story is Dem cheerleader

Boy, Obamacare sure is great, isn’t it? The White House has been trying to tell us that for ages, and with NPR’s help, maybe we’ll finally be convinced.

In a recent episode of “All Things Considered,” NPR’s Nate Rott talked with some people who lacked health insurance before they “enrolled” in Obamacare. Amanda Shelley is one of those people:

Isn’t that nice. Dan Simas, deputy senior adviser for communications and strategy at the White House, couldn’t wait to pimp the story:

Covered on 1/1. Pain on 1/3. Confirm coverage 1/4. Surgery 1/6. Without #ACA. "Would have been bankruptcy for me." http://t.co/4MhB4TfE6F

Here’s the thing, though: Amanda Shelley isn’t just your everyday woman on the street. She’s a dedicated cheerleader for Obama and the Democrats. How dedicated? Well, her Twitter feed, which dates back to September 2012, consists of a grand total of 31 tweets. And all but two of those tweets promote Democrats, the 2012 DNC, Dem organizations, Dem hashtags, and, of course, Barack Obama:

So, a huge Obama fan is also a champion of Obamacare. Who’d’a thunk it?

Here’s a tip, NPR: If you’d like to be taken seriously as anything other than a propaganda arm for the Dems, at least make an effort to vet your sources a little more carefully, mkay?
