I'm as angry at the media for giving Clooney a pass on his venemous insults as I am with Clooney himself.

Let's not forget the media's response to Trent Lott - and the fact that what Lott said was a intended as a private comment to Strom Thrumond, on Strom's birthday; it just happened to get picked up by microphones. Yet even after five public apologies, the media, NCAA, et.al. were neither content nor mollified.

Clooney is beneath contempt. And the hypocrisy of the mainstream media is enough to gag a maggot.

And the beat goes on....

Of course, we all agree with you. This has been the case since the 1960's at least. Clinton's crimes, for example, were aided and abetted by a compliant media. I'm not sure I blame Clinton as much as I blame the media for not telling folks the truth about him back in 1992. They knew then; they know now. Clinton got away with it because of them. But rest assured, they are much more diligent when a Republican is President.
