This would not be like the story the press carried that the Republicans wanted to starve children.

I remember calling a reporter at the Pittsburgh post gazette on that one. I asked him if he believed the Republicans literally wanted to starve children. He said no. I asked him why he printed it then. He said he was only quoting what the Democrat was saying. I asked him what his journalism professor would have thought of his single source story?

These jerks in the press are so transparent. It is not journalism they are practicing. It is advocacy.

Exactly. It is hard to understand why they can't at least have the pretense of fairness like they used to. They use to at least run a line or a quote from the 'other side', hardly anymore.
