Yet more documentation of the symbiotic relationship between the Republican Party and our legacy media.
You'd never know it from reading the RNC talking points at Politico or the Washington Post, but guess what: Houston, Texas -- a historically-conservative city in a historically-conservative state -- is on the verge of getting its first openly-gay mayor. What's more is that she was by no means the only progressive or trailblazing major candidate in the race.
Is it just me, or have the national legacy media outlets stepped up their attacks on Obama now that he's served notice he's fed up with FOX Noise?
Why is the Brazilian embassy in Honduras under siege? Because it's sheltering Honduras' rightful president, Manuel "Mel" Zelaya, and his family.
As a followup to my post yesterday on the media's enabling the career of Michele Bachmann, I decided that it was only fair to give you a rundown of the persons set to challenge her for her seat next year.
The same traditional media that has no trouble demonizing lefties (either real, like Van Jones, or perceived, like Ward Churchill) just can't so much as let the word "extremist" pass their collective lips when it comes to known nutjobs like Michele Bachmann. A recent case in point: a fawningly submissive story, by the New York Times' Monica Davey, on Minnesota's greatest shame, Michele Bachmann.
