Default America at a Crossroads

Sometimes between Anna Nicole and Imus we forget about about the overarching issues we face as a country post 9-11.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch looks at PBS's America at a Crossroads:

Quote:
Public television takes a serious swing at it next week with "America at a Crossroads," a special documentary project that has had to overcome dubious roots. "Crossroads" was conceived in 2004 at the Corporation for Public Broadcasting under its disgraced former chairman, Kenneth Tomlinson. Tomlinson, a Bush administration apparatchik who worked to infect public television with right-wing ideology, resigned in 2005 after an inspector general's investigation into his actions found evidence of repeated violations of policies, ethics and law. Tomlinson maintained he did nothing wrong.

Default .

Nice quote. "Infect public television with right-wing idiology?" Oh no...THAT'S not a biased comment.

I'm in St. Louis, and I've got to say that the Post Disgrace is a fast waning publication. Their views are so obviously liberally slanted, that while they "think" they're appealing to the "majority" of people in our city, they're actually "doing" the exact opposite. It's one-sided comments like this, that show the proof in their slant.

Disregard anything put forth from the St. Louis Post Disgrace.
