This sentiment is shared by one and all at ABC's GMA and the weekend version with Bill Wier. Recently Bill Wier was sitting in as the evening news anchor and managed to get in a shot at Bush on a Iraq segment by commenting that there was no proof there was a connection between Saddam and al- Queda. It really didn't fit with the story but wierd Wier seemed pleased (judging by his smirk) that he got the jab in.

I don't see this to be this big a deal. I wonder if Drudge is trying to sucker in the media.

1. Release borderline email showing purported media bias at ABC.
2 Get all the right wingers to go on a witch hunt.
3. ABC will defend it as being his own personal opinion of what Bush was doing at the time.
4. Drudge comes back with another email.
5. Repeat
5. ????
6. Profit

"There is no such thing, at this date of the world's history in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print.

The business of the journalist is to destroy the truth: to lie outright; to pervert; to vilify; to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks; they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities, and our lives are the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."- John Swinton, highly respected former Chief of Staff for the New York Times, at the New York Press Club, 1953. when asked to give a simple toast before the New York Press Club, stunned a roomful of admiring peers into total silence with the preceding remarks (as reported in the January, 1993 issue of The National Educator, and also quoted in the book "Pure Sociology" by Professor Lester T.

So the MSM hates Bush? That's neither shocking or deserving of a dopey siren.

Some enterprising warrior should be able to match up the time on the e-mail to the transcript and estimate the point in the debate where Mr. Green became ill, the precise comments from GWB which triggered this violent outburst. Thus giving us window into Mr. Green's soul for further analysis.

Thus illustrating once again to the MSM the power of the pajamahadeen.

LOL, I think poor John will probably need a new email address after today. I bet his blackberry has exploded.

Now he'll have to get his new email addy to Hillary, Kerry, Edwards, Gore and the whole MoveOn gang.

MSM guranteed John Kerry 15 points in 04 obviously it wasn't enough. Thank God for bloggers. However, because of the MSM proven bias towards this President he needs our support more then ever to get the truth out.

"A friend of Green's at ABC says Green is mortified by the email. "John feels so badly about this email. He is a straight shooter and great producer who is always fair. That said, he deeply regrets the sentiment expressed in the email and the embarrassment it causes ABC News.""

He deeply regrets alright - regrets that this note made it to the light of day and is likely going to be sacked.

In email, there is a highly technical term used to measure very fine increments of time. This term is called the OHNO second. I expect that Mr Green is experiencing a highly delayed, time-dialated OHNO second.
