Thanks to Mr. Greenwald for "Fisking the NYT" as Andrew Sullivan put it. Perhaps if enough of us pay attention for long enough, we'll learn to do it ourselves. (Though over at FireDogLake the winning entry for a title for a Bush Bio was "You Can Fool Enough of the People Some of the Time.")I get that the lessons to be learned here are 1)don't get sucked into empowering authority to do whatever it wants, and 2)speak up against revisionism where're you find it (assuming you are awake enought to recognize it). But it seems that for we, the people to not get fooled again the whole nature of our relationship to media is going to have to change. How is that to happen? Not everyone can spend hours a day sifting through the blogs.
