Welcome to Amerika.
But Barbara Walters can SLEEP with a sitting Senator and avoid criticism?
A bit harsh...
Until the advent of the Associated Press in the middle of the Nineteenth Century, newspapers were openly partisan affairs. Hamilton and Jefferson each sponsored a newspaper to politically attack the other - and that was not considered untoward at all.But the Associated Press was a monopoly, and as such it naturally raised some eyebrows early on. But the AP responded to that challenge by asserting that "we have newspapers of all stripes of opinion; we're not biased, we're objective."
Apart from the blatant hubris of claiming the wisdom to be able to be objective, the fallacy in that was the fact that the editorial page content was no longer the most important opinion expressed in an AP newspaper. Those famously contradictory political opinions were overshadowed by the planted axiom of AP journalism - that all journalists were objective. That is, it no longer made business sense for newspapers to compete on the accuracy of their coverage; to that extent they were no longer competitors. Any more than the Yankees and the Red Sox are competitors when they are trying to promote attendance at baseball games. Any more than ABC News and NBC News tried to run CBS News out of the business over the 60 Minutes episode using of the fraudulent "Killian Memos . . . and subsequent stonewalling."
So much for free speech. The four-eyed faggot, Keith Olbermann, does not make any secret that he’s voting for Obama. He just did not come right out and say it.
