Jon Friedman: WTF?

Who the Hell is Jon Friedman you ask? He writes a column for WSJ(red bulb!) Marketwatch called Media Web. Today he's pondering whether or not the NYT and other 'liberal media' will gang up on Cheney, Scooter and Porky over the civil suit that Valerie Plame has filed.

Friedman is supposed to be some sort of irreverent character. I'm sure that's true. Just as irreverent as his employer - The WSJ - will allow. *snicker*

You really need to read this.

Here's the mosquito bite:

[snip]...And let's get this out of the way right from the start: yes, I believe, the media DO have a liberal bias. Is there really any doubt? My conclusion is as logical as saying the sun rising in the east and setting in the west and as durable as the axiom about death and taxes...[/snip]

Sure. Conclusions without evidence are..what's the word..dogma.

So, I wrote Jon an email. Let's see if he posts it. Since I start off asking him if believes in a god or gods, I'm certain he'll bounce me on those terms.
