Under Murdoch, the WSJ has become filled with ideological bile

Not as much as most of your sources, but even if it was that isn't a counter argument. Its just ignoring points you don't like. I suppose actually answering the points is too hard...


Of course the fact that its filled with ideological bile is a counter argument. The statement below only tells part of the story:

"But the October shortfall was not the first. Indeed, since the outbreak of the H1N1 swine flu occurred in April, federal projections have been consistently and wildly overoptimistic and have had to be ratcheted down several times. As recently as late July, the government was predicting having 160 million doses by this month."

The fed. gov't wasn't getting these numbers out of thin air. Private industry was feeding those numbers to them. It was private industry that fukked up; not the fed. gov't. Of course, the WSJ under Murdoch has an axe to grind and doesn't want you to know the real source of the problem. And you go along with it because it plays to your book.
