OUR Lover-ly So Called Liberal Media

Remember this Headline:

SANDY BURGER STUFFED DOCUMENTS IN HIS PANTS AND SOCKS...

...WHAT HATH THIS TRAITOROUS MAN DONE TO BETRAY OUR NATION?...FLASH THE SIREN MATT, LAUNCH A FULL SCALE INVESTIGATION SAYS DENNY HASTERT, "HE HAS IMPUGNED THE INTEGRITY OF LOYAL, HEFTY, AMERICANS"

A week later, page six retractions, quietly done. Now that the Talking Point had been inextribly and loudly thrown out there for all it was worth, the SCLM demurrely exonerates the guy.

Say?

What is this on "fucking" PAGE A17 of the Washington Post?
Investigators Concluded Shelby Leaked MessageJustice Dept. Declined To Prosecute Case

Federal investigators concluded that Sen. Richard C. Shelby (R-Ala.) divulged classified intercepted messages to the media when he was on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, according to sources familiar with the probe.

Specifically, Fox News chief political correspondent Carl Cameron confirmed to FBI investigators that Shelby verbally divulged the information to him during a June 19, 2002, interview, minutes after Shelby's committee had been given the information in a classified briefing, according to the sources, who declined to be identified because of the sensitive nature of the case.

Cameron did not air the material. Moments after Shelby spoke with Cameron, he met with CNN reporter Dana Bash, and about half an hour after that, CNN broadcast the material, the sources said. CNN cited "two congressional sources" in its report.


Say is this on the CNN.com front page, like Burger was for a few days?

NOPE.

How about FoxNews where it got the big-ol' headlines for three days or so.

NEIN!

Well, at lease they are EQUALLY fair and balanced.
