A Liberal Journalist Reflects

Do read this. I did say a long time ago that the fundamental problem was the transmogrification of objective journalism into unhidden advocacy. A blurb:

Someday, cultural historians will look back on the early 21st century and speculate about what killed the credibility of America’s so-called liberal-media elite. 

They will ask, Were the wounds self-inflicted or the product of a methodical plot? 

Make no mistake about it. We did this to ourselves. 

As a card-carrying member of the leftist media near-elite — alas, I’m not nearly rich or famous enough to be regarded as a 100% elitist — it pains me to see my brethren sinking like the sun in the west. But we have nobody to blame but ourselves.
