I can only say that the media is suffering from multiple bad love affairs, the first with themselves, then with the liberals, and then against anyone who is not them or liberal. Love em, hate em, who is the next target for ridicule. Spears, Imus, "Oh not Jackson, he's one of us".
The media is beyond control and becoming something like a fifth column, but they are not even interested in being king makers but stroking their own egos.
That is what I take away from - Colbert, and does anyone really wear those armbands, I thought red was the band for the Psych wards?
