Great job Kristinn and Doctor Raoul!

When I read the Trentonian article I could see the media spin in action. I decided to see if a liberal co-worker and conservative co-worker would notice what I perceived.

I emailed the video and the Trentonian article link seperately, video first, to both of them.

The liberal said there was no difference between the video and the article.

The conservative said the article totally discounted what he saw in video! He heard no 'goading' and noted the liberal media spin of the entire article!

What I am talking about was the headline of the Trentonian article,
"Protesters goad Kerrey into cussing jag".

I noted there was no mention of Kerrey's party in the headline. My conservative friend said that if the commissioner was a Republican and protestors were anti-war, the headline would have read,
"Republican commissioner abuses protesters".

I have one question for the good Doctor: Isn't your sign a quote from Kerrey? I thought I read somewhere that he had said that, along with "Clinton is the most skilled liar I have ever seen in my life". Am I wrong about these?

I didn't think the article was that bad. Considering they were the only ones to print a story about it, I'm not going to pick it apart.

Kerrey said about Clinton, "He's an unusually good liar."
