Bill Press, again, allowed film "critic" Walter Chaw to repeat same tired, old
lies about Michael Moore "fudging the numbers" in Sicko. This is the second week in a row he's done this. Gupta admitted he was wrong a long time ago yet Chaw is still repeating the same crap over and over. What's with this guy? Today he said that Moore and his "followers" were just proving how thin skinned we are when we complain.

1. Bill Press is not an independent thinker - he's a repeater of 'conventional wisdom' type
of Democrat pundit who is too lazy to care about accuracy in his remarks or the remarks made by others. He accepted the RW talking points long ago that certain 'lefties' are OK to marginalize and not defend with vigor.

3. and he doesn't do his homework
which is the other pattern of 'our' pundits: they are not well informed about the subjects they discuss. The opposition comes in with their talking points good to go, the rejoinders ready and our side is just ignorant.

2. Press is an annoying shit 90% of the time.
Sirius Left's morning lineup ought to be renamed Sirius Middle of the Road and Irrelevant. Press ran an 'impeachment is off the table' show the other day, got tons of calls that were overwhelmingly in favor of impeachment, and was dismissive of each and every call.
