ABC News on the hour mentioned it under W's arm. LOL. Bernie Goldberg is going to be a very rich man. I hope he gives to W/Cheney(or)Rice in '04...

Among the stores surveyed is very likely NOT Media Play, who refuses to display it with the other bestsellers - but rather on an obscure shelf labeled "Current Events." Bill O'Reilly's book IS displayed with the bestsellers, at #15.

I just heard the same report. There was something of an edge to the tone of the reporterette's voice.

Hmmm... It's almost February. Perhaps another un-Valentine campaign for 'The Dan'?

Yes it is! I finished it a couple weeks ago and passed it along to my liberal Democrat sister!

No kidding. He is obviously sending a very clear message.

Re#5 and the presshole's "edge" to her voice. Here's a portion of a Reuters caption with the picture: "which is one person's view of a claimed liberal bias in the news media. REUTERS"

LOL-"view" of a "claimed" liberal bias. W has struck a nerve of the pressholes. Gotta catch Ari's show today....

I was reading through Amazon's description and it had the following statement:

-One of the biggest stories of our time-and why you probably didn't hear about it on the evening news

Have you found out what that is yet? My feeling is that Freepers already know about it.

"Bias" should be required reading within every university level "Journalism" department -- But it won't be ...

... for the same reason Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged" isn't read in the "Philosophy" departments.

If this is a #1 best seller, why do I find it, along with Bill O'Riley's book, on the back side of book shelves at Barn's and Nobel(sp)? I would think that it would be out front where people can find it.

Do you think the people working at my Barns and Nobel are just typical lie, cheat, and steal Democrats?
