RE-IMPEACHMENT!!!!

I hope you're joking. Do you mind telling me what the heck that would prove?

Please link directly to the reply in question, my self-described liberal FRiend...

Damn, looks like it's not there...might have been archived by now. Well, basically, I asked people to give me an exaple of legitimate liberal media bias and they couldn't. Nope, not one of these people who crowed so loudly about the liberal media could give me an exaple of what they were talking about. So if you're feeling up to it, post an example here and bring it on.

Hmmm...obviously a cool-handed slap at my boy, Ronnie!! But what is yer definition of "sensationalism"?! And do not the DemocRATS tend to use this device as well?

I wasn't really talking about Reagan, although I'm sure you could find some examples involving him. By "sensationalism," I mean taking a news story and highlighting what people would find titilating about the story at the expense of the story itself. Mostly this involves sex and violence. I'm short on time right now, but when I come back on Monday I'll link you up to some examples of where this has happened.

I won't say the Democrats have never done this. But the GOP uses this far, far more often than the Dems do, probably because the Dems have to deal with this reputation of "liberal media bias" that was created by the GOP! It's a little like "playing the refs" in a football game: If you're a lineman, you accuse the lineman across from you of all kinds of penalties when he's not paying attention, so that when you call a penalty, the ref is more prone to let it slide. If the GOP squeals about "liberal media bias" long enough, it becomes easier for them to pass along their own bias (can you say "FOXNews?") and not have it called against them.

Do you believe Dubyuh is sensationalizing this Tragedy? Or is he simply adept at using the vaunted "Bully Pulpit"? I would tread these waters carefully.

While we're at war, I have made the sacrifice of refusing to criticize our current President in his handling of this matter. I think he needs our support, not our criticism. So I'm going to decline to answer your question.

Depends on what the meaning of "liberal" is, don't it...MUD

No, I don't think there's any room for any bias in the mainstream media, for the most part. But if you can prove me wrong, be my guest.

See ya Monday, all.

"I hope you're joking. Do you mind telling me what the heck that would prove?"

The Re-Impeachment--AND CONVICTION--of William Jefferson Blythe Clinton in the Two Thousand and Second Year of the Lord by the US Congress cemented in the Minds of the Sheeple the importance of the Principle of Equal Justice Fer All!! Interestingly, 60% of those 24 DemocRAT Senators who VOTED IN DEFENSE of Executive Privilege vis a vis Perjury, Obstruction of Justice, Abuse of Power, Bribery, Conspiracy to Commit MURDER, and yes, TREASON, were unsuccessful in defending their seats the next time they ran for ELECTED office.

So Sayeth the Word of...MUD
