Interesting analysis of how liberal cable news host Keith Olbermann condemned to the Bush administration's criticism of NBC News - as compared to his endorsement of the Obama Administration's criticism of Fox News. The author has a point, and documents it very well. However, that point seems a bit moot to me, as I find both MSNBC and Fox News to be guilty of the same partisan style of reporting. Instead of this childish game of tit-for-tat, I would have been more impressed if the author had fessed up to the general problem caused by opinion news and partisan reporting in both networks. Until then, I'm afraid Newsbusters remains a part of that problem, instead of a solution to it.
