What's Making News

Well, we've got an ongoing war in Iraq, with the supposed "handover" due to take place in 10 days, at which point the media will ignore Iraq even harder. We've got a few scandals brewing, including the Plame outing, the nonsense about Saddam and Al Qaeda "contacts" (I've had "contacts" with that right-wing nutball Doc. Does that mean we're collaborating?) and, of course, various officials, including Donald Rumsfeld, lying under oath (sigh, remember when that was a big deal?).

So what does your so-called-liberal media feel is the important poltical news of the day? The headlines from the AP newswire pretty much say it all: Kerry Took Money from Arrested Figure (the whole story is that the AP found out that a Kerry donor is a crook, and so Kerry returned the money, all of $2000) and Kerry Vacations with Wealthy in Nantucket (which talks about Kerry's "patrician" manner, immense wealth, etc).

Oh yeah, that's your liberal media, all right.
