"Our liberty cannot be guarded but by the freedom of the press, nor that be limited without danger of losing it." --Thomas Jefferson to John Jay, 1786.

Jefferson went on and on about how a strong, independent free press capable of and willing to take on the White House and other politicians, who might otherwise conduct themselves without ethics or consideration for the public good, is the key to the American democracy.

Bush-Cheney-Delay and the rest is the most unethical, corrupt and arrogant government we have ever had. As a result, they especially need to be taken on and investigated by the press, but for the most part the press (and congress) has been derelict in their duty to check and balance the administration.
