 |

I came across a great observation by Deacon at Powerlineblog.com Consider this:
| Quote: | Some dare call it journalism
Our round-up of commentary on CBS and the bloggers would not be complete without the clueless reflections of Richard Cohen, in a piece called "Journalism Happens." Cohen's concern is that "more and more Americans are getting their news through partisan filters -- talk radio, Web logs, Fox News, and the like." This phenomenon "enhances the importance of national or regional outlets that do not have, or share, an ideological purpose." Cohen does not cite any support for the view that those who listen to talk radio, watch Fox News, or read blogs do not also consume the MSM product. If our mail is any indication, readers of Power Line are still getting information from the MSM, with unfortunate consequences for their blood pressure. |
I have found in the past few months that my blood pressure skyrockets when I watch them. Is that happening to you? We really do have a very serious problem to deal with when we hear obvious bias and lies from the MSM and are left with the ultimate frustration of screaming "F" you to our television sets. This issue is growing more profound by the day. I must confess that the ONLY way I can physically watch Hannity and Colmes is to hit the mute button everytime the geek speaks.
I wonder where this anger thing will take us as a nation?

I guess those "partisan filters" would "enhance the importance of national or regional outlets that do not have, or share, an ideological purpose"---if there even WAS such a thing.
