Is this any different than the NYTimes using the same "man on the street" guy for quotes in all of their articles? Why the outrage? [/sarcasm]

"I wasn't a ringer ... I don't get paid [by AARP], I am a volunteer ... I am a typical victim," Roussos explained. "[AARP] give[s] you a title instead of paying you. That's the way it goes," she added.

Wow! I really need to figure a way to work this into my business plans... people will work for you for only a fancy title.

I have absolutely NO problems calling a person, who will maintain barb wire fences, Senior Engineer in Charge of Cattle Containment Division.

I haven't watched news from CBS, ABC, NBC, PBS, CNN or CSpan's morning Democrat Seminar Calling Orgy for years.

Same here. Same for a growing number of people. People watch and read the news to be informed. When CBS and the New York Time are caught manufacturing the news it drives more and more people to Fox, talk radio, and FreeRepublic.

If you cannot believe the news you are seeing then there is absolutely no reason watch it.
CBS and the NYT are losing customers that will never ever return to them.

Liberal Bias in the Media? Oh come on. That's just another right wing lie.

I know...Eric Alterman told me so! lol

The power of the computer and sites like FreeRepublic will keep these people's feet to the fire.

No longer can they get away with this biased "reporting" because they don't have a monopoly on the news any longer.

Now individuals and groups can have a forum to post their findings without being censored by left leaning jerks called editors like Howell Raines.

These posts are checked and picked up as they are copied and sent to news outlets in droves. Finally, some like Limbaugh or Hannity or Fox News checks it and runs a report (Rush was all over this). The left wing idiots of course call it a "vast right wing conspiracy".

We of course know it's just the truth. And truth and transparency are like the sun and a wooden stake to the left just as accountability is the death knell of government agencies.

Liberalism BS is breaking up like Steve Austin's space capsule. Except there is no technology to rebuild it.
