Gore’s TV War: He Lobs Salvo At Fox News

Something will start at the Republican National Committee, inside the building, and it will explode the next day on the right-wing talk-show network and on Fox News and in the newspapers that play this game, The Washington Times and the others. And then they’ll create a little echo chamber, and pretty soon they’ll start baiting the mainstream media for allegedly ignoring the story they’ve pushed into the zeitgeist. And then pretty soon the mainstream media goes out and disingenuously takes a so-called objective sampling, and lo and behold, these R.N.C. talking points are woven into the fabric of the zeitgeist.

Gore's right about the influence the conservatives have over the media. It is about time that we saw a Democrat beat the press, the Republicans have been doing it for years and maybe the masochists in the mainstream media outlets will begin to internalize the Democrats' criticism, it's worth a shot.
