NP- David Brooks, Joe Klein, and the Courtier Press

[David Morris]

Granted, except for the false equivalency between major networks and
Maddow/Stewart.  Maddow/Stewart aren't "news."  One is
commentary/analysis and the other is comedy/analysis.  Both comment
on, not report.

Actually, we could use a lot more analysis on the networks, instead of
the he-said/she-said, no fact-checking false equivalency that so
prevails today.  But that would take balls, and only Fox (not that
they fact-check, but they do pretend to) has a pair, it seems.

Neither of the 3 sides is pure, but their respective levels of deceit
aren't even in the same universe.

PS.  Most people don't have the luxury to dig deeper than TV for news,
just trying to survive.  Being well-informed is a (painful) luxury.
