Fairness & Accuracy In Reporting

That’s the title of this article on Common Dreams. A self-styled progressive and very much left wing NewsWire.

It’s all well and good that the CBS documents are calling much attention to themselves in the news, and drawing attention away from Bush’s service record.

To be honest with you, I’m glad.

I swear if I hear the word “Vietnam” spewed in this campaign one more time… I am going to scream.

Look… Bush served, Kerry served that’s more than half the people bothering to report on this crap have done.

GET OVER IT NOW!

The reason the CBS thing is such a big deal is because CBS screwed up big time. CBS just made themselves look like collective assholes on national TV. It has nothing to do with the content of the memos and everything to do with bad reporting, something the writer of the article above seems to have missed entirely.
