Corporate media putzes don't ask because they:

1. don't get called upon
2. don't get asked back

They still have to make a living and the Bushies know this and use it against people. I have to give Dick Gregory credit though as he has tried in little bits to ask decent questions and (OMG) follow up questions.

He needles Tony SnowWhite and was the one who got Bush hyperventilating in the last press conf about torture. He was the guy seen on CSpan holding up his hands to try and calm Bush down....as if George were an out of control three year old which he probably is....out of control...unfortunately he's 60.

I give him credit in a ridiculously lousy media environment where his bosses regularly roll over and whimper.

I can tell you why, if you really don't know.

The US is using coercive interrogation on detainees in order to obtain intelligence.

Now, that wasn't hard, was it?
