These are the media sources to which I am assuming you refer, at least these were the sources noted above! Are you attempting to say they distorted Gore's record?


"the truly brutal distortion of Gore's record by all the sources noted above ought to lay the liberal media bias myth to rest."


It seems to me that these were the media that were lined up to kiss his ass! If they aren't liberal biased I'd like to know what you see them as being?
And that's what I'm talking about. Different reality filters give you a different view of the world. Specifically, none of the mainstream media gave Gore the defense he needed against the "claiming to create the internet smear". (That really was a masterful smear, BTW. It had just enough truth in it that there was nothing short of a liberal bias in the mainstream media that would have washed it off.) In case you want to argue that he said that, no, he didn't. He said (and I don't have the direct quote) that he consistently supported the creation of the internet through both legislative and executive means.

I'm at work, so I am going to leave it at that one for now, but there are other examples out there.
