Right now the press is feeling the heel of Bushie censorship.

BS

Clear Channel for instance will not let anything be reported about Bush that might piss off the WH.

Not true but even if it was it would be the editorial and news policy of clear channel, not censorship.

See how Bill O'Reilly attacks the LA and NY Times.

Calling that censorship is like saying that your attacks on Bush are censoring him.

Right now the press is feeling the heel of Bushie censorship. The way they do it use the FCC an their new dominance in the media. Clear Channel for instance will not let anything be reported about Bush that might piss off the WH. See how Bill O'Reilly attacks the LA and NY Times. It's a massive effort to protect Bush and intimidate the media. Even the Washington Post has been intimidated. Plus after 9-11 nobody wantd to attack Bush. WE were under attack. That's understandable. But all that changes in a month or so.

I agree. I have never seen such attempts at informal censorship. Hillary Clinton used to complain about the right and attempts to character assassinate those they didn't like. I thought she was overreacting but I believe it now.
