When I was scanning the wires, I noticed something interesting. When Judicial Watch went after the Clinton, they were called a "right-wing group". Now that JW is going after Cheney, they are now listed as a "public interest group". Sometimes, the media can't help but show its bias.

Hmmm, I just did a FR search for "Judicial Watch Clinton" in hopes of finding a post from Reuters or AP or anything (other than NewsMax) that discussed a JW case against Clinton.

Guess what? I didn't find a single post that was from a "mainstream" news organization. Seems like they pretty much IGNORED Judicial Watch when it dealt with Klinton, but now look at the press JW is getting. Biased indeed.

Exactly - caught my ear on the CBS Radio News today.

Simple explanation: Judicial Watch initially only sued Democrats. Now Judicial Watch is much more bipartisan.

It's not the media that changed the lead in for JW; it was Klayman himself.

Very interesting... good catch. Of course the sheeple won't notice the bias.

This afternoon NPR has reported the JW suit against Cheney EVERY 15 minutes. When JW had 6 or 8 lawsuits against Clinton administration members NPR said nary a peep and when they did they characterized JW as "conservative."

Now, all of a sudden, JW has become an "independent citizens group" or a "leading watchdog group" -- These folks are utterly shameless!

You're right. Most of the time Judicial Watch didn't get publicity when it went after Clinton. This story was on the news all day today.

Isn't that amazing? I wish I had LEXIS-NEXUS access, and I would do a quick statistical study of this.
