Here’s to you Bernard Goldberg. Thank you for your courage to tell it like it is.

The Op-Ed that started it all...

There are lots of reasons fewer people are watching network news, and one of them, I'm more convinced than ever, is that our viewers simply don't trust us. And for good reason.

The old argument that the networks and other "media elites" have a liberal bias is so blatantly true that it's hardly worth discussing anymore. No, we don't sit around in dark corners and plan strategies on how we're going to slant the news. We don't have to. It comes naturally to most reporters.

Did this guy write a book about the media bias a few years ago? His name is familiar...did Rush interview him?

Hello . . .
Where have you been?
Under a rock?
Yes he wrote two books. He worked for CBS and predicted the fall of Dan Rather.

Hey! Give me a break!

I'm Canadian...almost like being under a rock.

I don't watch the television, and get my news from the internet. I listen to Rush and thought I remembered hearing this gentleman interviewed.

Sorry if he's a big name and I was not that familiar with him.
