"To anticipate the next 1000 protest letters: the point here is not, “the press should criticize..."
“To anticipate the next 1000 protest letters: the point here is not, “the press should criticize Republicans.” It is that the press should recognize reality — and at moments when one party is behaving in extreme ways it should come out and say so, despite the powerful (and admirable-in-its-origins) aversion to seeming to take sides in political disputes.”
