please!

I say this to help whoever posted that thread, but also because I'm afraid that some people are not looking long-term in their analyses but are reacting to something one talking head or another said or did only recently.

In other words, try not to have knee-jerk reactions just because of what one of these talking heads said within the last six months; try to look at the long haul. Don't assume because someone works for NPR that s/he is a "liberal"--that's a gross stereotype.

1. Pardon the pun.

2. Partisanship vs. conservatism

Woodruff, Roberts, and Williams don't really strike me as consistently pro-conservative so much as recently pro-Republican and pro-Bush. The long haul doesn't matter to the Kerry campaign so much as their pro-Bush media bias in recent years, I'd think.

BTW I've listened to Terri faithfully for years and consider her a liberal based on that experience, not a stereotype.
