Questions MSM wouldn’t be asking if they read conservative blogs

How Did Reporters Not See Their [John Edwards & mistress] Affair?

Caught this headline on AOL. The answer is easy. It’s that (D) after his name.

Reporters were busy chasing down non-existent conservative scandals.

    God. Does your hatred of Obama run so deep that now you pray that his family is destroyed?

    Why does the Right hate so much?

    2: We don’t hate gille…we just like to see the left held to the same standard the right is. I don’t think anyone on this site wants to see the two young Obama daughters hurt. But what’s right is right–don’t confuse ‘hatred’ with a desire to see a liberal diety held to mortal standards.

    But right now…this seems like the story is a big ‘if’.

    Speaking of non-existent conservative scandals… I read that Sarah Palin is up 26-0 on the ethics charges that leftist nutcases have tried to level at her.

    Lawrence’s article is interesting. It’s somewhat introspective and self-flagellating, but not nearly enough. From her conclusion:

    The oddities I noticed in the Edwards campaign, the flickers of unease I felt, were like the dots that intelligence officials are always trying to connect to prevent terrorist attacks. They seem obvious in retrospect. But to make sense of them prospectively, you’d have to imagine the worst of all people all the time… a cynical way to practice journalism.

    So how does the lamestream media practice journalism? How do they keep their idealism fresh? By simply imagining the worst of *one party* all the time, giving the other party huge passes as long as possible.

    The simple reason is the media never question any talking point a Democrat feeds to them.

    The National Enquirer fact checks better than any other Newspaper around.
    I heard of this gal during the campaign when she was exiled to Jamaica.

    Right now it seems that Obama has his own little Katrina to deal with, and can’t make it down there till Sunday.

    Also, 11 men dead due to a terrible accident on an oil rig. Never heard their names, one bird it covered with oil and makes it on the front page of the WSJ. I’d say our priorites are quite off here.

    11 dead? Thank you Leah, I hadn’t known! Yahoo’s lead article on the spill right now makes no mention of it.

    Oh MARY!!! Could you be more dramatic? You know this sort of thing is a resume enhancement for liberals. None of you will hold him accountable for anything and his spot on Rushmore will be solidified. Maybe even another Nobel Peace Prize and another for economics.

    Do we want everyone’s sex lives to be news? Why does the media insist on pretending they don’t know that Crist is gay? Because the press corps considers those things private until there is some legal matter that comes up. Once there were allegations that campaign funds had been used to pay off Ms. Hunter, it was considered news.

    And I didn’t notice any response from the gay right about the Lindsey Graham “outing” last month. Is picking through his sex life fair game too?
