I saw O'Reilly's expose last night (that the Times had run 28 straight days of front-page stories on Abu Gharib). I thought, "heck, the Times won't care".

It's almost a relief to read that they are very sensitive about how they're portrayed by people like O'Reilly.

The ironic part...or the sad part is...that O'Reilly just recently came to the realization that the media is biased.

Frankly I think it's somewhat natural to try and defend your own profession....but it's always bothered me that O'Reilly didn't believe it...and vigorously defended his beliefs that the media WASN'T biased.

Oh well...I am just happy he finally "saw the light".....

" I saw O'Reilly's expose last night (that the Times had run 28 straight days of front-page stories on Abu Gharib). I thought, "heck, the Times won't care". THE PRESS and "POWERFUL IMAGES":

How many pictures have you seen in print of the victims of 9-11?
How many pictures have you seen in print of Saddam's tortures?
How many pictures have you seen in print of atrocities against American soldiers ( shot in the back after being handcuffed, naked?)
How many picures have you seen of the beheaded and dismembered american civilians?

Total these up. Compare with # of pictures you've seen of Abu Ghraib. Now what does that tell you?
