It means they're really PO'd about getting their butts handed to them by the people, so the people must go.

That's the impression I'm getting; this has to be the fourth or fifth article from CBS about blogs.

Of course, as somebody pointed out to me today, when an article or an assertion is made or posted on FR, it takes about 15 minutes for it to be thoroughly vetted from every point of view.

CBS is pissed because they don't have a 24/7 cable news network like NBC, FOX, and ABC have, and they don't even have a blog on their site, all the other media outlets do though.

Well, don't ya know, only "Officially Sanctioned and Approved News Organizations" should be allowed "freedom of the press!"

Can't have anyone monkeying with "The Truth"TM

Internet blogs are providing a new and unregulated medium for politically motivated attacks.

"... and, dammit: that's OUR job -- !" :)

Perhaps it's time to organize a sustained boycott of CBS altogether.

"What does this mean?"

I would like to know that, too. If you get an answer, could you forward it to me? Thanks!

I will do that. I can think of a lot of ways to make political speech look innocuous, and I'm sure there are plenty of other talents around...

But that remark in the article just raised the hair on the back of my neck.

A band-aid for the black eye?

Maybe they should put a steak on it, or a stake in it.

I live so far out in the boonies that CBS (along with ABC and NBC) are options that I would have to pay $2.00 each a month for, if I wanted them, which I don't. So, I have already boycotted them, as far as watching them goes.

I'd be thrilled to boycott their main sponsors, though, if anyone has a list...and write letters, too...
