You really get the sense that the Paper of Record's terrible coverage of Biden is based largely on their editors and reporters being SUPER PISSED Biden won't give them a one-on-one interview.

In the old political order Israel’s right to exist as a highly militarized apartheid state is unassailable and Palestinians are responsible for their own subjugation and anyone who denies those realities is shunned as antisemitic.

That political order is gone.

She was selected valedictorian and should be watching her family fawn over her with pride and getting nervous about talking in front of all those people and then knocking out out of the park. What a betrayal by USC.

Great piece by baynardwoods, debunking Boss Hög's absurd moderate mystique for national audience. Let's hope follow up digs into his mind-blowing spiking of the Red Line (inc $1B in fed funds), Bmore's best hope for transformative change in a generation: baltimoresun.com/2015/07/07/bos…

To me the unwritten NPR story is this one. Asymmetry between the major parties confounded their both-sides logic. They couldn't get through to themselves well enough to sense what was needed. See my 2011 post, 'They Brought a Tote Bag to a Knife Fight.' pressthink.org/2011/03/they-b…

100% this! I backed Ivan in the last election because he stood up for Keith and spoke out about the GTTF. Without the support of progressives, he might not be where he is. Deeply disappointed to see him side with corrupt conservatives Sinclair/Smith/Dixon.

David Folkenflik The ending always seemed obvious- he pushes NPR to fire him, finds 15 minutes of fame as a martyr of the intolerant left/liberal media, and settles into right wing media someplace where he will no doubt find the journalistic objectivity and editorial standards more to his liking

Finally read the Uri Berliner piece on NPR biasand I'm baffled by how little the enormous media controversy it spawned has resulted in scrutiny of its claims for factual accuracy. There are significant problems with the piece including obvious, verifiable falsehoods
