Have they blamed the "liberal media," yet
for the spine that many journalists finally found, and are still using?

Earlier Soledad O'Brien was trying to get tough with the LA Lt. guv.

Certainly yesterday Brian Williams was great on The Daily Show and for those who missed, I hope that they can watch the tapes that are always posted later.

For myself, what caught my eye was not so much the anger and probing questions by the "stars" - but by the unknown CNN and MSNBC anchors and photojournalists of the mid day

1. Fox teaser: "Did the media get it right?"
What do you think the conclusion is going to be?

5. Depemds. Rivera, of course, was his usual clown
but I understand that Smith and Levnethal stopped cheering Bush.

Of course, I've never watched Faux so have to rely on what others report.

7. Laura "Unsafe-at-any-speed" Bush did. She said the media keeps...
showing the same things (Bad things like people on roofs, etc...) over and over......

It was essentially blaming the media for showing bad things and not the good things like 50 fireman walking around the AWOL/Moron for a photo shoot.

2. Liberal Media? They used it to plug up the drain on the bathtub
they're using to drown government.

3. You didn't see Scotty?
He was seriously on the defensive attack toward David Gregory and Terry Moran. Accusing them of engaging in the the "blame game".

4. Poison the well: Rove's primary tactic
Already, Faux is reporting some nonsense story about the NYTimes incorrectly reporting a stupid story they wrote re: Geraldo.

The logic is, if they got this wrong, how can anyone believe them.

Also, FindLaw apparently had some incorrect info on their web about Brown's background which Time magazine used in their article.

Watch out for another Rather-gate trap.

6. By that standard, Fox shouldn't be on the air

"The logic is, if they got this wrong, how can anyone believe them."

They really ain't got much of anything right in the last 5 years.

8. Ya, I'm still waiting for their corrections on the Schiavo story
Every single one of their talking heads should have to issue a retraction for all the misinformation and unscientific nonsense spewed during that circus.

Just one high profile example of when they got it ALL wrong. Faux is NOT news....it is opinion, opinion, opinion...they shouldn't be allowed to use the word "news".
