Local rag (Houston Chronicle) had the story on page A10 and what did run was, as one would expect, nothing but a rehash of the Kerry line.

Can ANYONE any longer doubt that the MSM is ENTIRELY biased to the left? Bill O'Reily had a segment on it yesterday referencing a new non partisan study proving their bias and then there is this.

The disdain within the industry for Fox News Channel ought to be enough to prove it, but there are always people like Eric Alterman, the author of What Media Bias? and Steven Rendell, the sub-genius behind FAIR (Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting) that say omission of details of labyrinthine corporate relationships with the TV networks constitutes a bias toward big business. For example, the way a 60 Minutes expose on the tobacco industry was spiked at the behest of CBS lawyers, considering that the then-chairman of the company also owned tobacco giant Lorillard. That kind of stuff may happen every so often, but more pervasive is on-air staff schtuff like CNN's Suzanne Malveaux saying she "hope[s]" the Kerry story dies tomorrow (that is, today).
