"Of Course It Is"

I think people are entitled to whatever political views they’ve concluded are correct. What irks me regarding the MSM is its pretense that it has no political views and that it’s engaged in objective reporting. I’d start reading the NY Times again in a minute if it would forthrightly admit that it is a paper aimed at furthering the Democratic party platform. I wouldn’t feel as if I and all the other readers are being lied to by something that feeds news with an agenda, but denies the agenda exists.

Didn’t they admit to that in 2004?
