How Glenn Beck is beating the snot out of "The Old Grey Lady"

[Don Corleone]

Those of you who are arguing it's a question of media cozying to gain access, not a particular administration affinity probably have more of the right of it I think. I think there are preferences, and I think there is a bias, but I agree, the bias about getting first tier press credentials goes volumes beyond any D vs. R pettiness.

I think a more interesting study wouldn't be the one Lemur suggested, but a study of how much better independent bloggers did on reporting on the Bush adminsitration as opposed to supposedly partisan sources, like the NY Times yet again.

I know Ken Tarranto meant this as a "See, they are Democrat hacks", but I took it rather differently. In all the talk about traditional media outlets failing, if all they exist for the purpose of existing, is there any value there to be saved?
