1. And Chuck Todd is now spewing false equivalencies over it.

Does that man have any clue what journalism is?

5. traditional journalism as taught in j schools entailed exactly that

It drove me nuts in the 80s. They were so immersed in a particular ideology--call it liberal, and later neoliberal, logical positivism, and yet so blind to it and then arrogant about it at that.

At least the notion of false equivalency is sinking in--but it took the blogosphere to bring it to light. It would never have happened internally.

Welcome to DU!

3. Reid

Great move by him. Sources are saying reid is very much opposed to repealing or delaying the Medical device tax.

Chuck Todd Is again showing how biased he is.

Nice remarks by pelosi too.Remember when we had a speaker who actully ran the caucus of speaker's party? Pelosi has more balls
than Boehner.
