I think they were trying to get around this by citing the "myopic zeal" (which, apparently, is not bias but rather a rush to get a story onto the news... might be credible if that approach also was applied to stories negative to Democrats). In my mind, "myopic zeal" should go right up there with "fake but accurate" in the panetheon of liberal weasel wording.

Well said.
