Who said the Media is biased? (Hint - the same ABC official that announced in
August that the "election was Kerry's to lose")

I read that memo someplace else. You can be sure you won't catch me
defending it. There's a few weak stabs in it at being even-handed, but on
the whole I think Halperin is someone ABC ought to consider canning.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

jibranrashid, that was very nice and I see you enjoy music. That's
really very commendable. Did you have a good day today or was it a
bad day? I hope it was a good day.

And as a followup to ABCgate, the following is from NRO - the kerry
spot.
------------------------------------------

"It's up to Kerry to defend himself, of course. But as one of the few
news organizations with the skill and strength to help voters evaluate
what the candidates are saying to serve the public interest. Now is
the time for all of us to step up and do that right."
The above is the Halperin quote that advised
ABC writers to Bush Bash.

The following is a followup per the Kerry Spot


"But I was willing to conclude this was something Halperin wrote after
a bad day. The Note seemed to be pretty balanced, and ABC had gone
after Dan Rather on the fake memo pretty darn persistently. There's no
way ABC would follow in the footsteps of CBS, right?

I was wrong. The folks at ABC are every bit the partisan hacks that
the CBS folks are. Check out Winds of Change blog:

SCHWARZENEGGER SAYS BOTH BUSH AND KERRY EVASIVE IN DEBATES: "Both of
them did not answer some of the questions, which I think is upsetting
to me. I think it is much better to be straightforward with the
people.... You know like Kerry did. Bush did the same thing in some
instances, not really get into it and answer it."
So I click along to the linked Reuters story and get this (the deleted
words are in bold):

"Both of them did not answer some of the questions, which I think is
upsetting to me," Schwarzenegger told KGO radio in San Francisco. "I
think it is much better to be straightforward with the people."
"I mean if you get a question about Iran and about the nuclear power
and what you are going to do in the future with this nuclear power,
and you don't even answer that question, I think it's a mistake, You
know like Kerry did," he continued. "Bush did the same thing in some
instances, not really get into it and answer it."


That is a ridiculous editing of Arnie's remarks, a deliberate
ommission designed to make his comments appear to be praise of Kerry
when he specifically cited Kerry as not answering the question. There
is no excuse for that kind of "editing.""

--------------------------------

Right before our eyes, Newspeak is having its heyday and while this
should impact ABGO like a UFO landing at the Star Trek Convention, its
sad to see that some and especially Martha seem oblivious.
