Another News Alert

If you haven't heard already, there was a report last week that the news staff of the Seattle Times erupted in applause when news of Karl Rove's resignation hit the wire. News Alert.... News rooms are overwhelmingly liberal.

Nicole Brodeur, a columnist for the paper, has a piece here about the incident. Hat Tip Darth Dilbert

Here, every morning, some 20 smart, educated, well-read and diverse people.....


Yeah, I bet they're diverse, I bet there's at least 10 conservatives represented in that 20.

That's her spin. See, in Nicole's world, a "conservative" couldn't be educated, well read and diverse.

What I've come to question is that if liberalism is soooo smart & intelligent, why is it that it can only exist in the vacuum of accountability?

Think about it. This news room erupted in applause. These people are totally insulated from public scrutiny because they are a paper of record.

University Professors, private foundations employees, government employees, union reps, etc. are all insulated from public scrutiny of their beliefs. It's why liberal talk radio will never succeed. As soon as light exposes the mold of liberalism, it starts to dry up. Liberalism can only succeed in the darkness of group think.

As far as Karl Rove goes.... I think it's hilarious that he became a lightning rod for all liberal hate (See liberal projection syndrome). Do you think that maybe that's how he played them the whole time?
