“The greatest evil is not now done in the sordid “dens of crime” that Dickens loved to paint. It is not done even in concentration camps and labour camps. In those we see its final result. But it is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed and well-lighted offices, by

Despite claims of “journalistic integrity”, the fact is that media bias is a reality. You just wouldn’t think an entity as large as the New York Times would be so blatant about it: Jake Tapper at ABC News reported that MoveOn.org paid $65,000 for its full page anti-war advocacy sliming of General David Petraeus.
