washingtonpost.com: Media Notes Extra

The media is finally going off into a "red/blue" world, like the English. I know I'm not the first person with this idea, but, would it be so bad if the newspapers just came out and stated their political motives and stuck by them? This is clearly influenced by Murdoch and his power in the British media. He saw an opening (the need for opinionated news) and took advantage of it. Too bad that Turner was busy trying to save TimeWarner from self destructing so he couldn't respond quickly. Now it's too late. Basically the idea of unbiased journalism is taking a beating and probably will never (or ever) exist. Their are a lot of pressures on the "news" and this might be the most powerful yet.
