"Look at the coverage of Hillary Clinton," for comparison, the Media Research Center founder noted, or how the media treated liberal African-American Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall with the savage attacks the media have gotten away with on conservative Justice Clarence Thomas.
Bozell also slammed MSNBC's Chris Matthews for smearing Michele Bachmann as being pro-slavery because she is a constitutional originalist. "That the kind of low-brow MSNBC kind of coverage you get now which is just not worth our time, frankly," he argued.
