American “journalism” was assassinated ages ago by none other than the man that the left holds up as the gold standard of "journalists", Walter Cronkite.

To: Bullish

I grew up thru 60s three network tv and print

And yes it leaned left

But nothing like this

The gap between Time and Mother Jones is ever closing

And TV is nutz...

Part of it is the minutiae of the agenda

Would leftist Cronkite and left leaning Paley today pimp for homosexual marriage and outright gun confiscation?

I was a college small L radical then......we thought the MSM was staid and right wing...lol

I read Crawdaddy and the aforementioned MJ and the Nation and Ramparts etc to counter that

As I progressed I moved on to the Economist and The New Republic etc in my early to mid 20s transition

By Magnus assasination attempt I was 180

I remember when US News and World Report was conservative.....

And try imagining Abe Rosenthal at the Old Grey Slattern today
