Same old media


On November 13 NBC News congressional correspondent Chip Reid and MSNBC host Tucker Carslon portrayed Democratic House leadership elections as evidence that the Democrats are lacking "unity" and are "divided."

Predictably, they don't portray the REPUBLICAN election for Minority Leader (Mike Pence of Indiana is trying to oust Rep. John Boehner of Ohio) as as evidence of Republican "divisions" or "disunity."

REID: "In the House, though, Democrats returned not to unity but to a battle between Steny Hoyer of Maryland and John Murtha of Pennsylvania to be majority leader next year, the number two position. Number one -- the speaker -- is expected to be Nancy Pelosi, who, in a weekend surprise, formally endorsed her old friend Murtha, even though Hoyer is the front-runner."

Didn't these guys get the memo? The constant complaint from Republicans is "liberal bias in the media." Well, you'd never know it from the way the media covers Democrats.
