    Fairness in Media Coverage

    Greenwald is right. On the specific reference to digs against media coverage, I have been sick of right wing attacks on the so-called "Media" for four decades. It all started when CBS and NBC and ABC showed racist police hosing down "radical" civil rights activists. Confederate racists attacked the liberal media for undressing the South. Today, tens of millions of people listen to Rush, Hannity and Savage every single day. Fox has won the ratings war on cable for years. Swift Boaters are still writing lies. When you do not like the message, kill the messenger. This is the first time in forty years that I believe my side is going to win. And the win will not be because both sides were not give a chance to get their say in.
