They ignored Saddam Hussein's atrocities so they wouldn't lose "access."

Of course, a naif might assume that the whole point of "journalists" having access is to inform the world of murderous tyrants, but I guess they have their own agenda.

Badass, seems you've found a key to understanding the MSM - the missing puzzle piece of perverse incentives... If the purpose of access isn't to increase their ability to gather news for their viewers, what's it for? This is a real question... I have no idea on this one - but it feels important. Any ideas?
