"Dropped the ball"?

Intentional fumble.

Well if they buried it, they didn't do a real good job. The old fool could have been caught in a rest area with Richard Simmons and he still would have been reelected.

the media dropped the ball on this issue

What a trite phrase (i.e., reduction of something once forceful to an empty formula or cliché. American Heritage)

If they covered for Murtha they sure as hell cover for others -- lots and lots of others. That's clear. And it ain't moderate to conservative Republicans being protected.

Reason number 3,745,892 that many MSM employees are about to be downsized.

The corrupt press got what it wished for....a solidly RAT congress. Let's see what they do with it. My bet's that they'll start eating their own in about six months. They're so locked into hatred for whomever is in power that they won't be able to help themselves.

"that the media dropped the ball on this issue"

More like cencored, suppressed, ignored... etc.

Absurd! This would indicate that they once held the ball.

Thanks for the ping. Did we NEED Kurtz, or anyone else, to admit it? ;*)

I'm sure Big Media is kicking itself for failing to discover Murtha's ethical problems UNTIL AFTER THE ELECTION! I'm sure they're saying to themselves "darn it, I wish we could have printed all this negative stuff about Murtha before the elections". And I'm the King of Spain.

After two years of carrying the water for Democrats, the MSM sheepishly attempts to recover what's left of its credibility.

WHAT????

The media dropped the ball?
Oh no! Come on. your're kidding, right?
Say it ain't so. Oh please.
Gee it's a good thing that doesn't happen often or folks might, just might think it was a pattern and practice of the er, alleged news industry.

What about Murtha?............ The media needs to be asking about Reid, San Fran Nancy, Hillary and a host of others as well. All have had major ethics problems.

None of this will come out and FOX doesn't hammer them either, because they have to look like they're, more or less, covering the same stories as the other MSM outlets so as to not appear "right wing".

Something's got to be done about this TV monopoly. Conservatives had better think of something.

FOX News has their hands full today playing the Indonesian anti-Bush rally footage over and over.
