I see a LOT of Ronald Reagan from the 1980 campaign in Sarah Palin now--Reagan in many ways just bypassed the MSM and totally drove them nuts.

What we're seeing in the MSM right now is just as bad as the infamous yellow journalism wars between William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer. Indeed, one of the sentences from the English Wikipedia article on this subject:

By extension Yellow Journalism is used today as a pejorative to decry any journalism that treats news in an unprofessional or unethical fashion.

Absolutely describes the Left-leaning MSM almost perfectly.

“Absolutely describes the Left-leaning MSM almost perfectly.”

Oh yes, yellow journalism at it’s finest or should I say lowest. I also agree with what you say about Reagan. I was actually going to put that same thought in my last post.

Yet we still have morons on FR who insist that our candidate "must be liked by the media and have a positive reception on Leno and Letterman.

Some people display stupidity. Others wallow in it.
