We Republicans love to criticize the "liberal media."
Well, this short video from The Daily Show shows how difficult it is to tell a story accurately when people keep spinning differently things depending on the situation. Granted, some of these clips may be taken out of context... but I think Jon has left enough context in to get his point across. And (unfortunately) he makes that point very well in my opinion.

Let's set Jon straight.
The "media" Jon is using are from opinion pieces. Everyone knows O-Reilly is an opinion show...just like the opinion section of your local newspaper.
The liberal media bias though is in the headlines of your local paper and on the tickers of CNN & MSNBC. And from the mouth of Wolf Blitzer, Cambell Brown, and Dan Rather....all people who are supposed to be reporting objectively.
O'Reilly and Rove are opinion reporters.
There's a huge difference and it's not on both sides.
That is fair, PT. However, the point is not so much whether or not the media is biased. That was just my opening line (which I now realize was incorrectly used).
The point is that the opinions of the Rove and O'Reilly change depending on who they are talking about. They are talking out of the proverbial both sides of their mouths. That problem with that is that they look foolish.
double-minded thinking=foolishness. Now that's what I'm talking about!
exactly!
