Huge media criticism story, yet no Armstrong Williams
Just like you'd expect, the dial has been seething with media criticism all week -- but wait a minute! Where's Armstrong "The $240,000 Man" Williams? It's all a freepin' rehash of the CBS/Nat'l Guard debacle from October!

Ah, I get it. Fresh, breaking news that makes Bush** look like the POS that he is = bad. Stale, warmed-over "news" that makes the evil dunce look like a poor, persecuted victim of the lib'rul media = good. :puke: :puke: :puke:

1. I dont get it either.
Dan Rather continues to be barbequed, but Armstrong's ass is lily-white (so to speak).

2. I'm more interested in the impact this will have on the neoCONimperialists
If a pattern of covert propaganda is exposed,...that could become a big enough scandal to renew hope that our own "evil-doers" will pay for their abuse of power.

3. Because right wingers actively write LTTE's and call in to shows
and call their congressional representatives and the FCC complaining about Rather.

On Williams the most the left wingers do is say tsk tsk amongst themselves.
