Media Bias Grotesque

June 28th, 2004, Cute and cuddly Katie Couric and her pet sidekick, a fellow who looks like Andre Agassi and acts like Lassie, proved a point this morning. They announced the pending release of "new information" about Princess Diana.

Six days of Ronald Reagan, who just weeks ago left us, was excessive to American liberal journalists.

Princess Diana passed to her reward long ago and far away, and we do not yet have our fill of her?

If one wishes to compare deaths, Reagan got a disease and dealt with it bravely, while Princess Diana was in a limo full of booze and drugs, heading for the next party.
