Do we want folks to be able to fire those they consider "left wing hacks?"

It should be hard to fire journalists - otherwise they will be afraid to say things which are unpopular.

that wasn't bestowed on Dan Rather - who actually reported the truth.

There are entirely too many Right-wing hacks posing as journalists and reporters in our incorporated bought-and-paid-for media.

All she basically does is front the piece. She does not write or produce, she is only the talking head, the performer. The people you should be going after are the producer of the story and the executive producer who cleared it for air.
