Resignation to Protest Award to Hume, But Not When Libs Honored

"...whether it wouldn't be better to have a more European-like model -- in which media were straightforwardly ideologically aligned...”

This would be my preference, but will never happen as long as the lamestream press refuses to admit it's biased.

I have both. Strunk & White celebrated brevity, a virtue I've sometimes neglected. But I've tried to stay consistent with AP Style.

Isn't he though? The only good thing about this is the left is proving themselves more and more pathetic as each day goes by and...as much as the media and the dem/libs would like us to think otherwise...it is NOT going unnoticed by the American public!!!

Yes, Brit is good and he maintains order on his show. He loves to joke with Fred Barnes too...but..you can see he respects Fred Barnes a lot!!! Brit is a good guy. There are no other anchors on network chs that can hold a candle to him.

At the February 20, 2003 event, Raines railed against anyone who dares accuse the media of liberal bias: “Our greatest accomplishment as a profession is the development since World War II of a news reporting craft that is truly non-partisan, and non-ideological, and that strives to be independent of undue commercial or governmental influence.... “It is that legacy we must protect with our diligent stewardship. To do so means we must be aware of the energetic effort that is now underway to convince our readers that we are ideologues. It is an exercise of, in disinformation, of alarming proportions, this attempt to convince the audience of the world’s most ideology-free newspapers that they’re being subjected to agenda-driven news reflecting a liberal bias. I don’t believe our viewers and readers will be, in the long-run, misled by those who advocate biased journalism.”

That's why their headlines always said stuff like, algore is a 2-time college dropout, George Bush has an MBA, the smartest woman in the world flunked the Bar exam in Washington DC twice, Ronald Reagan had a degree in Economics, etc.
