perhaps the mainstream press is finally developing something like a spine. not sure. what do you think?

It has been so long since I have witnessed an aggressive msp, that I continue to be surprised when I see it now. I believe that it was Katrina that finally revealed that the emperor has no clothes, even though the Iraq war was already grinding away at the president's approval ratings.
I would not go so far as to say that the msp has recovered it's spine. It seems more likely to me that they see a wounded administration that has been prematurely pushed toward a lame duck status. They no longer fear losing access to the administration to sell the news, and have caught the scent of carrion.
