Sunday on the Fox News Channel's "MediaBuzz," Sharyl Attkisson blasted the mainstream media for being President Barack Obama's lap dogs.

While discussing the media's lack of coverage of the growing threat of ISIS, Attkisson said, "Here's my cynical viewpoint. It would have been on the front page had the administration wanted it to be on the front page," and "The media waits for the administration to dictate the agenda and coverage."

C-SPAN3 had a program on last night (originally aired in July) about President Harding's love letters to his mistress (recently made public). It was mentioned that before going into politics, Harding was a journalist.

One person mentioned that journalism has been called "the second-oldest profession."

Another person filled in the rest of the saying: "but it lacks the high ethical standards of the first."
