    Kurtz only plays a non-partisan on television

    "Isn't it long overdue that someone tell Kurtz that he needs to try harder if he wants to maintain his pretense of nonpartisan, above-it-all, objective media observer?"

    He's not trying very hard lately. When he did a puff piece on Malkin and noted that her home address had been outed, without bothering to note some fool did this in reaction to Malkin's practice of posting the home addresses of some poor kids who's politics she didn't like, he played fast and loose with his own ethics.

    Kurtz only plays a media watchdog on television. In print he's not a watchdog, he's a two-bit attack dog. The man uses Malkin as his source to go after left-wing blog anger. That is confoundingly hypocritical.
