Great point, cloud8! "A New Day Dawning" comes to mind, and it was dawn 28 years ago. The old gray lady just didn't know it yet.........and, by the way, "fake but accurate" kind of sums up the whole arrogant mind set of the liberal media. It reveals their pretzel logic, and the effort to be right at all costs........even at the cost of ordinary, man-in-the-street common sense. Dan Rather made that self-contradictory remark while somehow believing that it made sense!
........about as much sense as handing out counterfeit $100 dollar bills, advising people that they aren't real, but will buy you $100 worth of merchandise anyway, because check-out clerks usually don't recognize counterfeit money.

You bet it does, along with this idea that Dan, Peter, the NYT et al. should be self-appointed information gatekeepers. Talk about arrogance! I will decide what information is worth my attention, thank you. Generations ago, major cities had morning and evening editions of several newspapers (imagine that!) and one could sift through their various slants to arrive at some semblance of the facts--just like we do on the Internet. Except the Net is faster and access to all sorts of information is free and unrestricted.
