Part of the (brilliant, though diabolical) strategy of neocon strategists like Lee Atwater and his disciple Karl Rove (not to mention whatshisname Strauss) has been to first nullify the press by convincing the public that they are irremediably biased against whatever propaganda you will be spewing.    I fear it's worked beyond their wildest dreams.

"Liberal media," my arse!
