Oh, for crying out loud: I just saw this headline on the MSN webpage a second ago. An example of the unbiased news media:

“The president laid out nearly two dozen proposals & promises in his State of the Union address, but his speech was met by a Republican brick wall.”

@10. Oppo: “He has received the Sigma Delta Chi and Washington-Baltimore Newspaper Guild Awards for his investigative reporting.”

Which apparently involves getting high, watching SNL, and thinking it is a news program. I assume many of his other investigative reports can be traced back to Jon Stewart.

By the way, it was also the Washington Post that published this, from their opinion writer Richard Cohen, way back on 10/6/2011, getting in the front of the line for the “falling for fake stories” thing as well as the “what difference does it make?” thig:

“What did she [Sarah Palin] say, exactly? Never mind, it hardly mattered. . . . Her responses to questions — that stuff about being able to see Russia was just plain asinine — were stunningly bad.”

He’s referring to a quote by Tina Fey, in a parody, not by Sarah Palin.

["Cohen joined The Post in 1968 . . . He has received the Sigma Delta Chi and Washington-Baltimore Newspaper Guild Awards for his investigative reporting."]

There is far, far more truth expressed on IMAO than ever was in the Washington Post and New York Times combined.

Fox News got rid of Sarah Palin, they fired her and then hired that liberal kook Dennis Kuchinich. How stoooopid is that?

It looks like Washington Post blogger Suzi Parker has a bright future with China’s daily newspaper, People’s Daily Online, which ran a story announcing that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un had been named Sexiest Man Alive.

There are some other good quotes from the article, but one part that I almost missed is that the New York based media analyst they quote is named Elizabeth Lemon.

So, does this mean that global warming has nothing to do with meteors?

I’m thinking they should follow the IMAO blog’s lead and put “SATIRE” at the beginning of their headlines!
