The Gloves are off: Wash Post gives up Pretenses of Objectivity Howard Kurtz:



What, after all, does the ex-veep gain by denouncing the likes of Fox News and the
Washington Times?

Maybe he's just frustrated that his book isn't selling better, despite a zillion media
appearances with Tipper.

Let's say Gore is right, that conservative news outlets are trying to blacken the
reputations of people like him. Doesn't complaining about it just sound like whining? Or
is he playing to his base, the way conservatives have done all these years by moaning
about the liberal media?

After all, if you're going to take on Saddam and Osama, you'd better be able to deal
with the likes of the Washington Times. The conservative media aren't going anywhere.
Deal with it.
