"...by stark contrast, the tired right-wing grievance about The Liberal Media is not just permitted but welcomed; Bill Kristol...Charles Krauthammer, Jonah Goldberg, Bill Bennett -- are routinely heard in the very venues they attack..."
Elite liberal media figures flatter themselves with their delusional self-image as warriors defending to the death the views of those they disagree with. They believe they're impressing the bullies with how open minded they are when what they're really doing is opening themselves up to more contempt. Sadly I think Obama has more than a touch of this liberal vanity himself.
(Arianna, on the other hand, may be the personification of old fashioned vanity, but not this kind. Froomkin should be safe with her.)
