I am sick and tired of Conservatives continually whining about the Liberal media (particularly MSNBC) and Liberals whining about FOX News. So,let's get the record straight: FOX is the Republican network and NBC is the Democrat network. So, please, all you pundits from Rush to Olbermann, talk issues and stop whining about the other guy.Bumps Blackwellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12341882.post-74476702319059358732009-05-06T00:26:00.000-04:002009-05-06T00:26:00.000-04:00Gort is reasonably fair, but by no means impartial...Gort is reasonably fair, but by no means impartial - impartiality in reporting is fiction. That is not a criticism because bias is unavoidable - the simple act of selecting the story to be covered is a demonstration of bias. I'm much more likely to choose to comment on a story about a Democrat's policy failure or a Republican's failure to follow conservative principles because that is what I am interested in.<br /><br />It's not wrong to have a bias. The error comes from trying to pretend there is no bias. The best we can hope for is full disclosure of a point of view.<br /><br />Speaking of impartiality, any posts coming on this story Gort? - http://www.wowowow.com/politics/what-did-she-know-about-interrogations-nancy-pelosi-defensive-278525<br /><br />As an example of bias related to this story, Politico chooses to focus on the partisan nature of this story rather than the question of fact - "What did Pelosi know and when did she know it?" http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0409/21724.htmlAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10284140098980750290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12341882.post-35252149792699619852009-05-05T07:20:00.000-04:002009-05-05T07:20:00.000-04:00Political blogging is a double edged sword; on the...Political blogging is a double edged sword; on the one hand, a blogger can freely express his/her views on a number of subjects, but on the other hand, unlike the mainstream media, there is absolutely no accountablity, except at the blogger's own discretion. The majority of blogs are indeed opinion columns and should not be confused with the impartial reporting of mainstream newspapers (to your credit, Gort, you are impartial).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
