Media Go Looking For A Few Good (Anti-Bush) Generals Posted by Tim Graham Friday offered a good illustration of how the “news” is a manufactured product, an optional creation with a lot of room for spin in the “news judgment.” All three network morning shows brought on Gen. John Batiste to argue for Donald Rumsfeld’s resignation. Now conduct this imaginative exercise. A set of retired generals in the Clinton years comes out and demands that the Defense Secretary resign. Would they be salivated over by the newspapers and network bookers? Would they get on all three network morning shows to be asked about how the Clinton administration is a disaster? It’s more likely that the media would take the White House side: disloyal generals would be disdained as if they preferred a military junta run the country, or that they were Clinton-haters who despised the president because he dodged the draft in the Vietnam era.
