Some readers last week said the Globe has a "liberal bias" that made it too slow to report the collapse of the memos' credibility. ........ Naw, ya don't say?! Say it ain't so!

And newspapers routinely report important news generated by other media outlets as a way of keeping readers informed. That's their job. Oh really, then please do me the favor of pointing out stories you culled from other media outlets that were supportive of the SwiftBoat Vets. The sanctimony of these newspapers really brings on the gag reflex.

Where is the apology??? I did not find "we are sorry President Bush".
To: Cincinatus' Wife
"The Globe had no reason at that point to doubt the network's judgment. And newspapers routinely report important news generated by other media outlets as a way of keeping readers informed."
(Our source was a biased one. Why would we doubt them?)

Like Rush says, "If you read the NYT, you've read the WP, BG, LAT, etc, etc, etc.
You've read the MSM.

I characterized it as an apology. I should have used quotation marks - "apology."
To: Cincinatus' Wife

MSM's defense that they aren't and never have been biased, has been completely discredited.
To: Cincinatus' Wife
Some readers last week said the Globe has a "liberal bias" that made it too slow to report the collapse of the memos' credibility. ........ I suspect that "some" actually translates to "thousands upon thousands".

There you go. You found it.

"I characterized it as an apology. I should have used quotation marks - "apology.""
Sorry I thought it was their headline. I went to the site and never looked at the headline, which is why I asked the question cause I never read the "apology".
To: Ichneumon
I wonder how many letters they got.
I wonder how many subscriptions were canceled.
This shows we can, on some level, effect biased news coverage.
To: Just mythoughts
Well, it was a perfectly good question.
To: TBarnett34
"Precisely because the Globe is Kerry's home town paper," says Offen, the reader from Newton, "it has an obligation to be out front so that no one could accuse it of bias." Well, Ms. Chinlund, since you weren't 'out front', you stand rightfully accused of bias.
