But those frames are in conflict with and always subordinate to getting the story right They ought to be subordinate, but they are not and cannot be - since they are frames, they determine the very nature and content of the story. If the story of a big business hitting bad times is framed around the impact of layoffs on the 'stakeholders', then the story will naturally concentrate on the human suffering of the laid off workers, with a few digs thrown in at the compensation of the managers. It won't discuss the nature of the marketplace, why the company got into trouble, or what it needs to do to turn itself around.

The reason the NYTimes is vulnerable on the idiotic stuff the right is throwing at it is because it cares about getting the story right; Come on John, NYT just replaced senior staff for getting numerous stories wrong.

John..respectfully...I used to think as you do about Rush...So decided to actually listen to him for awhile, and then tried to find prove he was not telling the story with truth. I haven't been able to do that, and I notice no one else has as well. I think if you will do the same thing, you will see what I mean. Also, I think eventually Sean Hannity will be even more popular than Rush. Sean is polite, smart, listens and so does Colmes. Colmes said tonight he thinks if the Dems try to deamonize Schwartenegger, it will be a big mistake. Personslly, I agree, FWIW.
