CounterPunch: Tells the Facts, Names the Names

Tim Russert. Just another Republican water carrier...just like Rush and Sean. Tell me again about the liberal drive by media.



CounterPunch: Tells the Facts, Names the Names: "The tv carried live shots of Russert's coffin. He was lying in state and the mourners could pass by and merely touch the edge of his coffin for a cure, or hope for cure. There’s been nothing more grotesque since Reagan's funeral; this, after seven years of craven, culpable journalism across the mainstream board. No one at this point is remembering the reporters at Knight Ridder, who were among the few in the mainstream pre-war to hammer away at the WMD argument. Russert’s colleague-survivors need him as a saint."
