    I’d forgotten that Jimmy Breslin column where he “predicts” on election day the defeat of George Bush, and says he’s so sure he’s not even going to stay up to watch the returns.

    And says it’s his last column

    Well, that was a beautiful ride into the sunset, wasn’t it?

    I think he’s been sharing a bong with Walter Cronkite for way too long.

    i took a look. i think it’s a great idea but marginal in its posts and downright berserk in its comments.

    as a longtime chris matthews fan, i’ve been distraught over his abdication from even a remote attempt at fairness to bush supporters. he dumped peggy noonan–a literate partisan, pat caddell–an iconoclastic democrat of brilliance and twitches, and frank luntz–a pollster who wouldn’t have bought into the fake exit polls. election eve chris, andrea mitchell, howard fineman, and maybe pat buchanen –who is republican but an isolationist who hates the bush family–all spent the night reporting on the loser prez and the great kerry. next day the same, regardless of the votes, adding ron reagan to dance and sneer against everything his father worked for.

    the msm has a monopoly on the broadcast airwaves and presses, and they are relentless in their propaganda right now, as in “bush won so he has to move to the center and give up what he ran on and cooperate with us because we’re smarter.” huh? bush won. the center has moved, and they better get moving with it if they want some cooperation. i loved peggy noonan’s image that the pajamahadeen are the english yoemen with bows and arrows to bring down the polished armor-clad knights of the msm.

  5. Roger: The decline is even worse. The NYT is down 22% in its home market over the last decade and is in 3rd place there. Thanks, Jack Risko

    I thought that the 11/4 PRINT edition of the LA Times was the matrix for all stealth media bias. They covered everything only they featured and had photos of only liberals, some crying. You came away from their edition feeling badly for the poor Lefties who’ve had their futures stolen from them.
