CBS News - An Eye Out For the Democrats
Maybe I'm naive, but I never thought I'd see a mainstream media giant like CBS News resort to something like this.
Isn't it a dereliction of journalistic responsibility to provide a political party with 'inside' information (never mind the little detail that it was forged, allegedly by a rabid anti-Bush partisan) prior to the airing of the show? I won't tar all big-media as being "librul" but wow, what an example of partisanship this is!
I'm a software engineer who's married and has two daughters. I'm a Christian who tries to let my faith inform my political views, rather than vice versa. I do lean to the conservative side on many issues. Politically, I favor a government that holds people responsible for their behavior and well-being while helping the less fortunate become self-sustaining and contributors to society.
