I'm with you Host. I'm delighted to see Moyers back. He's one of the few great journalists left in TV land.
What the right fails to mention in their assault on the "liberal media" is that while it's important to balance opinions in a news story, you don't have to balance the truth, because to do so would require that you report lies. I don't have to go find someone to tell me the sky is purple every time I write a line about the blue sky, because I'm not required to entertain lies. The right wants us to report lies at least as often as we report truth, and if we don't, we're unbalanced. That's bullshit.
