Rightwing spin: Stephen's slam-dunk
What a pleasure to watch the Parliamentary Press Gallery squabble with Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

The first delight is the dispute animates the media so obsessively, while Harper is blase about it.

He actually seems to enjoy the media's open hostility. It's more honest than the media's fake image of "neutrality."

Now they are baring their partisan teeth for the public to see and judge.

2. Yes...Ezra
Gooooooood observation...

No one in the media is allowed to be partisan except you Ezra ...that's why you enjoy the 'squabble' as a disinterested third party; just a regular Joe Six-Pack watching 'pampered, thin-skinned, self-centred elite(s)' get a good shit-kicking courtesy of Calgary's favorite son...

Amazing that a guy, who has picked a side in the fight, nonetheless wants to call all those OTHER media people, paritsan and bias.

This from a guy who only a few months ago was the biggest cheerleader for 'press freedom' when he wanted to reprint the 'hate-baiting' Danish cartoons in his crummy little magazine...

Little putz...

(crummy link; even the Sunshine girl is kinda skanky too!!)
