?Three Estates in Parliament; but in the Reporters? Gallery yonder, there sat a Fourth estate more important far than they all?. - Edmund Burke
Headline: CHENEY AUTHORIZED LIBBY'S CIA NAME LEAK
The National Journal, a Washington pundit paper with limited insider readership has the story [here].
Is there a single major media outlet carrying the story?
Let's see...
What's the headline on every one of these? "Bush Announces (5 year old) Foiled Terrorist Plot".
Those crazy liberals, they're just gunnin for Dick "Sure, go commit a felony" Cheney.
Is this what our Founding Fathers had in mind when they envisioned an "Independent Press"?
[Update: They broke the story... hooray. I'll just be holding my breath for the big "Downing Street Memos" Expose'.]
