E. J. Dionne Derails Gregory’s Segment On Obama ‘Leadership’: You Mean ‘Adopt Republican Positions’

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

55. Sorry. I guess I shouldn't have commented because I didn't watch the segment and was just referring

to what was in the article. Watching Rs on tv just raises my blood pressure. And watching Ds fail to make a great point that ought to be made does the same thing. "Our side" is playing Tiddlywinks compared to the Rs as far as messaging.

I know journalists aren't supposed to be taking sides without reason, but there are plenty of reasons to object to what the Right is up to, and many positives about the Ds and our president that ought to, in actual fairness, be given more air time. But it's that ridiculous idea that you can't report more negatives on one side, even if that side has more negatives, out of "fairness." It's nonsense and explains why many people still say, "Well, both sides are just as bad." It's a lie, but how would they know?
