<p>In an interiew on the Glen Beck show, Ted Cruz told a story about he actually stopped cold a young staffer who commented how &#8220;nice&#8221; he found a reporter from one of the mainstream media outlets.  ;</p>
<p>&#8220;I actually stopped him and I said, &#8216;You know what? No, she&rsquo;s not [nice]. She wants to destroy you. Nothing would make her happier than to take your life and filet you on the front pages. And don&rsquo;t think for a minute that because she smiles and is friendly to you, that it&rsquo;s anything else,'&#8221; related Cruz.</p>
<p>Cruz&#8217;s remarks reflect a growing tendency in the media to &#8220;pick a team,&#8221; go on the attack against and color their reporting from a partisan point of view. Cruz noted recent situation where another candidate was considered &#8220;more hispanic&#8221; than Cruz even though his father was imprisoned in Cuba, ;&#8220;because there&#8217;s nothing that makes you Hispanic like embracing the left-wing amnesty agenda,&#8221; said Cruz.</p>
<p>PBP comment, in the age of &#8220;infotainment&#8221; reporters are forced to find ways to get an audience to respond.  ;Since legitimate scandals or criticisms are tough to find, the infotainment technique is to provoke, confront and twist to create a story where there is none, or to provide a sensational spin to a nominal event.  ;We believe this is a cynical and tragic breakdown of the media as it stands today.</p>
<p>In a National Review op-ed, Cruz said the last 24 hours are the darkest in the nation&#8217;s history, referring to the Supreme Court rulings on Obamacare and gay marriage.</p>
<p>&#8220;In order to provide the people themselves with a constitutional remedy to the problem of judicial activism and the means for throwing off judicial tyrants, I am proposing an amendment to the United States Constitution that would subject the justices of the Supreme Court to periodic judicial-retention elections,&#8221; Cruz wrote. &#8220;As a constitutional conservative, I do not make this proposal lightly. &#8230; But, sadly, the Court&rsquo;s hubris and thirst for power have reached unprecedented levels.&#8221;</p>
