Talk Radio is more biased then the Washington Post, but it isn't supposedly and unbiased mainstream news sorce. If you just look at the news from the WSJ, Fox News, or the Washington Times, I don't see it as being any more biased then the news from The New York Times, or CNN. And then there's Enron. Is there any doubt that if the situation were reversed, Republicans would be exploiting the scandal more aggressively? Would they have hesitated, as Democrats have, to frame Enron as a political scandal, or to bombard the White House with subpoenas? Democrats can't afford to go all wobbly, especially now."
