To bolster your comments, there was an active rumor that Kerry was dishonorably dicharged from the Navy for his political actions while still in the Navy Reserves. He promised to sign the papers to release all his military records but never did. The MSM gave him a pass with hardly a whisper.
Quite simply there's no difference between the tendency displayed by the "objective journalism" establishment and the party line of the Democratic Party. And that means that any news source that doesn't get mercilessly condemned by "objective journalism" as "right wing" is simply too leftist to be worth my respect. Which is why I'd listen to Rush in preference to watching any broadcast network's TV news."O’Sullivan’s First Law" states that
"All organizations that are not actually right-wing will over time become left-wing."Which is just another way of stating the fact that people with the courage and principle to resist the bullying of "objective" journalism will be labeled "right-wing."
