Whoops, wrong thread. That's what I get for keeping several windows open at once.

It applies to Joe Wilson, too. Not to worry.

Indeed! What bias.

Excellent post!

It makes me laugh when I hear talking heads saying that media bias is subjective and cannot be measured. I think Brent Bozell and the Media Research Center, and the table up above, show otherwise.

O'Reilly shreds the NYT for its full-out biased reporting, never mind the editorials.

I saw Joe Wilson on Keith Olbermann's show the other night; he actually said that Fitzgerald had said at least 3 times that Valerie Plame WAS undercover.

I yelled at the TV so hard...

I like it when the media tries to prove how unbiased they are by discussing the stories they ran. What they don't run speaks volumes.

I actually didn't watch the show; they showed it on MSNBC yesterday.

Anyone know of a well sourced article (referencing primary source materials) about Wilson/Plame which cover ALL the ground?

I want to send it to a diehard tinfoil hatter.
