No need to apologize for the large font. My eyes felt rested reading it.

For those who want to reduce it, click on "view" in the tool bar, find "text size" and make your choice.

Here is a book we might want to know about:

"Communication Professor Examines Media Bias in President's Speeches
Virginia Tech News ^ | 11/30/06 | Jean Elliott


BLACKSBURG, VA., November 30, 2006 -- Jim A. Kuypers, assistant professor of communication in the College of Liberal Arts and Human Sciences at Virginia Tech, reveals a disturbing world of media bias in his new book Bush's War: Media Bias and Justifications for War in a Terrorist Age (Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Inc. 2006).

Convincingly and without resorting to partisan politics, Kuypers strongly illustrates in eight chapters “how the press failed America in its coverage on the War on Terror.” In each comparison, Kuypers “detected massive bias on the part of the press.” In fact, Kuypers calls the mainstream news media an “anti-democratic institution” in the conclusion.
