You really don't know the difference between Hannity and Brown, do you? Hannity is a conservative talk show host. You know what you're going to get from him--which is a conservative take on the issues. Campbell Brown, by contrast, is supposed to be a journalist--a reporter. She's supposed to be objective. She's supposed to report the news, not spin the news and, certainly, not give her opinion on the news. The fact that you couldn't tell the difference between Hannity and Brown is evidence that by and large so-called journalists have abandoned any pretense of journalistic objectivity.

This is not directed towards you. So forgive me if I was harsh.

I can understand wanting CSPAN if it's an objective discussion and issues or such.


But I know some people (mostly GOP voters) like their propaganda not mixed with a little critical analysis...

Like wanting to here Palin talk about opposing the Bridge to Nowwhere, without some pesky know-it-all saying she did actually support the project in the past and

has bragged about earmarks for Wasilla.

Do you get my point? Some people like their propaganda straight up like CSPAN can deliver.
