Elsewhere in the blahgosphere, you'll read that 'liberal media bias is a myth'.

It's coming from the Blue Bozo Brigade's Usual Suspects, near and far, including those on the local scene who always exclaim "Who, me?", when confronted with their thinly veiled propaganda .

Information like this exposes that particular babble-on "progressive" theme, and those who enable such a theme, as completely bogus:

Noteworthy:

"In the week since South Carolina’s Republican Governor announced he had flown to Argentina to carry on an extra-marital affair, the broadcast morning and evening news shows have gone full bore on the scandal, cranking out 49 stories even in the midst of other major stories like Michael Jackson’s death and the continuing repression in Iran.

The morning after Sanford announced his affair, on the June 25 Good Morning America, longtime correspondent Sam Donaldson used the scandal to broadly charge Republicans with being 'sanctimonious. They thump the Bible. They condemn everyone else, and when they [act] human, they don’t have much credit in the bank for forgiveness.'

Unlike when New York Democratic Governor Eliot Spitzer was caught consorting with a prostitute in March 2008, all three broadcast networks immediately identified Sanford’s Republican Party ID.

A number of top Democrats are enmeshed in embarrassment or facing allegations of wrongdoing, but the networks have far less interest in publicizing those cases."

"Mark Sanford’s trouble is of his own making, of course. But the liberal networks seem a lot more excited about airing his dirty laundry than exposing the problems of top Democrats."

Imagine that!
