a media generated uproar
Does anyone doubt any longer that the OLD MEDIA is part of the Democrat party?!
I suppose to them Karl Rove telling a dumb*ss reporter they were about to write a bogus story is more important than the dumb*ss media asking Bill Clinton if he raped Juanita Brodderick which they NEVER did. And you can bet they will NEVER ask Hillary Clinton any serious questions about ANYTHING if/when she runs for president.
I can't stand OLD MEDIA and couldn't care less if they fell off a cliff. They don't even pretend to be fair about their so-called reporting. Just trying to listen to a White house news briefing is almost impossible. They try to out do one another in being obnoxious.
The Old Media consists almost entirely of Democrats. So they beat up on Republicans, not Democrats. I'd like to see them all take a big, Dan Rather-type fall.
Sam Donaldson did, actually.
