The right's two-pronged religion of rage and self-pity - Glenn Greenwald - Salon.com

The right promotes the "liberal" media daily. It's all they have and they have a great imagination.



The right's two-pronged religion of rage and self-pity - Glenn Greenwald - Salon.com: "As Blue Texan suggests, there are literally countless facts one could cite to negate the Right's incessant, tired complaint about The Liberal Media. As but just one example, the single most influential figure dictating what is reported by The Liberal Media -- Matt Drudge -- is a supreme right-wing hack. Just as Mark Halperin and John Harris proclaimed: He's the Walter Cronkite of our era, he rules the Media World, and is the nation's assignment editor. Every story he promotes -- Gwen Ifill has a Pro-Obama Conflict of Interest!!!! -- ends up immediately infecting the narrative of The Liberal Mainstream Media. How does one explain that?"
