AP's New Muckraking Style, From Just-The-Facts to In-Your-Face
For those unfamiliar, since May of this year the Associated Press has had a new Washington Bureau Chief, a past AP reporter named Ron Fournier. According to Politico, the previous chief was pushed out to make room for Fournier in a "hard-feelings shake-up" with the old chief left worried that Fournier might "destroy" the AP.

Obama Doesn't Understand Role of Joint Chiefs: Will MSM Take Note
A couple days ago at the gym, listening to a Hugh Hewitt podcast and perhaps not paying as much attention as I should have while pedaling away, I heard Hugh mention that Barack Obama doesn't understand the role of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. What was Hugh referring to? As the British would say: the penny just dropped. A few minutes ago, CNN's Situation Room played a clip of Obama saying this…
ABC News Likes Al Franken, They Really Do
The only thing that the mainstream media love more than liberal politicians are, well, Hollywood liberals turned politicians.

The puff piece sounded more like an Al Franken commercial than a piece of objective…
