American journalism's true colors

Stacey Woelfel, news director at KOMU-TV in Columbia, Mo., directed his staff to
"leave the ribbons at home" in order to show viewers "that in no way are we
influenced by the government in informing the public."

In the middle of the USA.
Well, at least they have an excuse: being next door to the U. of Missouri journalism
school that spawned Walter Cronkite (sp?).

I was shocked to find that one of the major network stations in Columbia
(can't remember if ABC, CBS or NBC) is actually owned by Univ. of Missouri.

By the way, I'm still wretching over Dateline NBC's interview of Hillary
Rodham Clinton in the middle of their show last night on the Citizen Soldiers of Flight 93.
I guess Jane Pauley just had to get HRC in the act by interviewing HRC as one of the
people on the ground that might owe their life to the folks on Flight 93.
Too bad Pauley/Dateline NBC decided to interview some white trash from Arkansas.

I have no idea what HRC said as I was too busy screaming at the TV "What the H-ll does
she have to do with this event?!" and retraining myself from destroying the TV.

I don't know how she does it, but this woman nails it every time.

Superbly crafted writing and to the point commentary.

Ms. Malkin is a gem.

Not that I'm suggesting violence or anything but in wartime treason is a capital offense.

If your point is there is a point which the American people will take no more from the effete anti-American media illuminati I believe you are correct.

Exactamundo! Moreso the academics than the media however since the media cloak any anti-Amricanism in 'neutrality' whereas the professoriat is unabashedly on the side of terror.

We have better allies in the Kremlin and in Beijing than at Harvard and Berkeley.

Heck, ABC had some show on this morning with Phil Donahue getting all impassioned about how "...America must show the world that there are ways to fight terrorism other than using military force...")

Who dug up this guy and pointed a camera at him?!

I swear, if any terrorist group said they had EMP weapons that could knock television and cable stations off the air for 30 days, they could win the hearts and minds of America pretty easily...
