Schieffer managed to annoy Media Matters with this quote back in July:

SCHIEFFER: [to McAuliffe] Don't you have to say more in answer to "What are we gonna do about Iraq?" Don't you have to do more than just say "I'm a Vietnam veteran"? Because he [Kerry] really has laid out no agenda about how to make this situation better than it is.

Can't have Bob telling the truth, eh?

I think Schieffer is better than the rest of the lot over at CBS. I know that's damning with faint praise, but I also think he did the best job of all the moderators during the debates.

Schieffer always injects partisanship into his reports. See this link for the many hundreds of examples.

You are inadvertently protecting a troll.

From MRC: " What Liberal Media? ¡°People are just stunned. It's such a wacky charge, and a weird way to go about it....I don't know what Bernie was driving at. It just sounds bizarre.ª Schieffer on CBS reporter Bernard Goldberg's eye-catching Wall Street Journal editorial charging a liberal bias at CBS, February 15, 1996 Washington Post."

Actually, I think the best moderator was . . . Gwen Iffil. Hugh Hewitt liked her but didn't like Schieffer. He had a scorecard for each debate (can't find it now) and Gwen came out far better than the rest.
