I'm a sports reporter for a major daily newspaper. Even most of the people in the prominent sports media, who probably don't know who the vice-president is, despise Bush and wish for almost anything that would end his presidency. Believe me, the major media boasts the most arrogant group of people in our culture. You'd be surprised at how stupid most of them are...The one thing they do realize...This nation is at a crossroads--will their anti-God, amoral, elitist worldview prevail, or the God-fearing worldview which most of us on Free Republic hold?
You have stated something I have seen for a long time. The way the Rocker incdinent, and anytime an athlete says anything they deem homophobic, takes on legs and dominates the sports media for what seems like weeks.
The ironic thing is, issues like steroid use and the resistance to any change in tradition in baseball (DH, wild card) are also pet causes for sports media. I've always felt that the liberals push these also just from the overkill these issue gets, even though they would be in their nature "Conservative" viewpoints. Bob Costas comes to mind.

How would we be surprised. Daily, they parade their arrogance and stupidity before the public throughout the major media.
Damn dumb Yankees, most of them.

Please give me your insight here. Do you have any explanation for the rabid hatred of GWB? It just baffles me. I truly don't understand it. Is it because he stands for old-fashioned morals and they feel threatened by that because they live immoral lives?
In the end, that battle has already been won. It is just a question of who is on which side when the curtain falls.
