Actually, I hadn't. Found this article linked on some other thread, read it through once and couldn't let it pass without linking it meself. It struck the same chord that was sounded by the late, great Neil Postman of NYU, concerning the effect that journalism has on our picture of reality.
If TRTK is intended as a continuation, I guess I should link it also. (Although I note that Bernie Sanders was in the House, not the Senate. Meh. The point was well taken all the same.)
Bernard "Bernie" Sanders (born September 8, 1941) is the current junior United States Senator from Vermont. Sanders was elected on November 7, 2006 (Wikipedia)
