"Burlington, Vt.: Do you feel that the mainstream media will be held to a higher standard of evidence in the future due to the prominence of Web logs such as the ones that exposed the documents as forgeries?
Mary Mapes: I think the internet is a fabulaous gift to all of us in building transparency in the mainstream media. It is also a tool for bullying political partisans to club peopleover the head because they pereive bias. Some of the people who attacked me and CBS acted, sadly, like 14 year old boys who had broken into their parents' liquor cabinet. Angry and drunk with power. That is unfair, unproductive and un-American."
I guess she is talking about Free Republic?? This woman is a total loon!!
More like CBS acted like 14 year olds. (No offense to 14 year olds.)
bullying political partisans to club peopleover the head because they pereive bias.
She says this sort of thing only when referring to the right. It shows exactly where her own politics lie, and it's not on some platform in the objective middle. She can't see the forest because she's a tree.
I don't know who she intended that to refer to, but it sounds like an awfully good description of her own behavior.
