So obsessed have they become in discrediting the Bush administration that they don’t even try to disguise their bias any more. Media rhetoric seems to have entered a new dimension of shameless propaganda that has completely abandoned all pretense of “news reporting.” And they carry on as if no one is noticing.

The left is totally out of control. The old gang-land, political mugging style of operation is not getting it anymore -- it is over. Let them keep flagging their blind, extreme radicalism -- and let's just hope people get fed up enough to not buy their stinking rags, or watch their leftist talking heads any more.

I watch the morning news for reassurance that the MSM still hasn't figured out that its streaking relentlessly toward and beyond irrelevance, all the while congratulating itself on its integrity and objectivity. It has evolved from annoying to amusing to downright comical. But I do sometimes yearn for Dan Rather's ultra-serious baritone and knitted brow while he babbled on as though anyone was really listening.

Eloquent. I must say, eloquently put.

This is all so true.

The Fox panel had a clip of 'Mother Cindy' in what I guess was a press conference. There she was with a bunch of microphones in front of her and the press asking her questions about Iraq. I'm thinking what the ____. She mumbled something about us leaving Iraq and then getting along with the terrorist and then she left abruptly. Then Jeff Burnbaum said some ridiculous statement about not underestimating her symbolism, or something like that. Finally Fred Barnes jumped in and said what a bunch of nonsense the whole thing is. I thought I was dreaming and quite honestly I'm still not sure if I wasn't.

I must say, I'm genuinely looking forward to SCOTUS confirmation hearings. At least then the end will be worth the wait, unlike the "Ditch Witch" circus.

Actually, it would be an amusing experiment were the Bush administration to select some little issue of little consequence with a big constituency on the left, and adopt the left's position on that one little issue.

MSM is America's, and world freedom's, fifth column. They've taken the precious gift of free speech, and are using it to destroy it and democracy.

Thanks for posting this.

The demise of the late Peter Jennings is a good metaphor for the MSM's current state.

Gosh. I remember the Lewinsky affair, in which the media kept telling us, "You (pl.) don't care about this" and that's why they weren't reporting it.

Where do I go to say, I AM SICK AND TIRED OF CINDY SHEEHAN and get heard? (The local lib-leaning paper, the King County Journal, gets a pass because they are not reporting this non-news.)

It’s a clearly charted course that began in 2000 and hasn’t changed much since.

Absolutely right. After Sheehan they will trumpet and then report to death whatever else is next. Oh yeah, the Roberts hearings are coming up. Just this year we have had, in no particular order, Abu Garib, Durbin/Gitmo, the Downing Street memo, the Wilson Plame fiasco, the who leaked what Novak column centering finally on Rove, the trashing of any and all Bush judicial nominees, the Bolton bashing, and probably several more I don't recall. It is a constant drumbeat of negativism about Bush and the Republicans, generated by the Democrats and carried non stop by the media. This will continue until November, 2008, and if we win again it will go on and on forever. Just consider it the death rattle of the left and the rebirthing pains of our Republic.
