To logical & rational people, this argument is sound. But to a liberal - this is the way their minds think:

The same way that you don’t condemn Al Gore for his huge carbon footprint (private jetting all over the world) - you don’t condemn newspaper’s huge carbon footprint either. You see, to an irrational way of thinking - Al Gore and the newspapers are the MESSENGERS, and you don’t “shoot the messenger”.

I know, it doesn’t make any sense at all, but there it is.
