And no where did I say that I think reporters don't show bias. Look at Fox News.
As for the straight out lies, I'm sure there are bad reporters just like there are bad cops. They shouldn't exist.
I have worked as a reporter and manage reporters and know bunches of them. Most of them bend over backwards to be balanced.
But that piece had no FACTS, just OPINIONS and was posted as a refute to facts.
All of which leads the thread awry and doens't address the topic the leak came from Cheney's staff. It was about a formerly covert agent. Her husband saidgain today that it put her in jeopardy. Rove lied and said he heard the news from the press.
