Only a respected member of the “mainstream media”can set the record straight. That person is the columnist who started at the center of the probe, Robert Novak.
That's what I say. That's what Rush says.

Rubbish, I say! Don't we have Rush on our side? Didn't Bush win- twice? Don't we have both chambers in Congress? Does that mean we continue the Left's self-asssigned name as the "mainstream media"? Calling them that gives them cover- and respectability- that they shouldn't have. It also heavily implies that anyone outside their ken is therefore not reflective of most Americans' thinking.
We need another name for those weasels, reflecting THEIR marginal, fringe, Leftist ideas. Something like, "MLM" for Marginal Leftist Media. The conservatives should be called "mainstream". But then I'd have to change my tag line.
