For years and years they lied, denying any bias. Now that their viewership is plunging, rats are abandoning ship. I wonder if the whole Clinton episode hasn't shaken liberalism to the core - those who are not entirely beyond the reach of reason and decency starting to peel off. Remember Dan Rather's attack interview on Bush 41? How many people know that this was planned by a producer who had spent years working for democrats on capitol hill? Or that most network news producers and staff have come through the revolving door of democrat hill staff of the likes of Senator Kennedy?

most network news producers and staff have come through the revolving door of democrat hill staff because journalism writers and democratic staff are interchangable parts. And that is true because, whatever journalists may say about their independence of political party, liberal Democratic politicians never controvert the political implications of superficial, negative journalism. In fact, they automatically echo them.

The "Clinton Episode" had nothing to do with it (the seemingly appearance of rats jumping ship in the liberal media)
It's September 11th, 2001. The day Liberalism Died.
The day of the new birth of Patriotism....a foreign concept to Liberals.
