Crush Liberalism

And I’m just positive that they received NO direction from their bosses, right?

The Rathergate fiasco apparently did NOT serve as a lesson to the MSM. They’re still as lazy and biased as ever. Story and observations by the American Spectator. Excerpt:

It’s Rathergate all over again, and the same vigilant entities that brought about to the collapse of CBS News could now also cause heads to roll among Democratic Senate leadership staffers and further shame multiple news organizations that would appear to have fallen for another document hoax.

Very quietly, Senate Republican leadership aides to both Sen. Rick Santorum and Sen. Mitch McConnell, as well as the Senate Republican Policy Committee, have been using the Senate recess break to reconstruct the purported distribution of a document that media outlets, including ABC News, the New York Times and a number of regional newspapers, identified as Senate “GOP talking points” on the Terri Schiavo fight that unfolded over the weekend.

“There is a process here for documents like this that are passed around down on the Senate floor, which is where the media claimed that the ‘talking points’ were being distributed last Thursday,” says a Republican policy committee staffer. “There was a lot of stuff going on Thursday, but a document like this one was not being distributed. As far as we know, the only documents being handed out related to votes on a series of amendments being pushed through before the recess. Schiavo wasn’t part of that package.”

Other Republican staffers blame not only Democrats but also the mainstream media which once again put out a story to embarrass Republicans before checking all the facts first.

What?!? You mean the MSM and the libs are in bed together like that?!? No WAY!!
