		<description>Pacatrue, I think &quot;MSM&quot; has become a fairly mainstream usage that can be used without prejudice, even if it has somewhat derogatory origins.  We do need a term to describe the body of professional journalists responsible who work for newspapers and broadcast outlets.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;George, I see no inconsistency between linking to a NYT transcript and criticizing their coverage.  Just because I accept their ability to transcribe a speech does not imply that I must accept their analysis as unbiased.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Also, George, I&#039;m beginning to gather that you don&#039;t take the Weekly Standard seriously.  I&#039;m no fan of The Nation, but when I read their articles, I pay attention to their facts and analysis, rather than assuming that anything published in The Nation is useless.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In fact, George, I even pay serious attention to the contents of your comments!</description>

		<description>Jchem--&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This is a post complaining about double standards. As if the Weekly Standard were some kind of exemplar. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As for the NYT, when this same author, David Adesnik, wanted an accurate copy of Sarah Palin&#039;s resignation speech for what he wrote three posts down from this one, he got it from &lt;a href=&quot;http://themoderatevoice.com/38132/ive-got-nothing-to-add-about-sarah-palin/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;the New York Times&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;By the way, if you go a few more posts down from that one, &lt;a href=&quot;http://themoderatevoice.com/38078/the-us-medias-moral-relativity-on-torture/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;you&#039;ll find the resident liberal also complaining about the New York Times&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

		<description>George, relax...how many times has Media Matters, Think Progress or any other such Left site been linked to here? I don&#039;t read the Weekly Standard, but it seems to me they raise a valid criticism regarding the NYT coverage. Perhaps you can explain where they are missing the mark.</description>

		<description>They are all double standards, but the Weekly Standard&#039;s opinion is diluted by their own consistent use of double standards.  It&#039;s the pot calling the kettle black again.</description>

		<description>Soldiers are more important than journalists because journalists have a choice. Journalists are following their fame and fortune. Soldiers are just serving a legal commitment to defend the Constitution and must obey the officers and non-commissioned officers appointed over them.</description>

		<description>I must say that I start to shut down as soon as I read the term &quot;MSM&quot;. It&#039;s become so politically loaded that it&#039;s hard not to make assumptions about someone&#039;s political world view as soon as they pop out with it. The term has gone from any discussion of political bias to often suggest there&#039;s this uniform media elite out to destroy the common man.</description>
