I'm almost never home mornings during the week, so I always hear second hand the stories of the leftist bias of the "Early Show". Well, this morning I'm home, so I tune into "Today" and hear that J. Lynch will be on, and think "Well, this should be interesting".
First 5 minutes of the interview go okay, then Katie Couric refers to the Iraqis as the "so-called enemy".
Then, she asks how the "government manipulation of her rescue" made Ms. Lynch feel.
Lynch's response was that she "was a little uncomfortable at first but overall I'm OK with it".
Cut to incredulous look from Ms. Couric, who keeps pressing to get the all important sound byte bashing the US government.
Sweet Jeebus, folks, there really are media people out there who are determined to convince us that the concept of national identity is over, and that we should just join hands with the EU and bow to the almighty UN.
And I think it goes deeper than just hatred of President Bush. If a Democratic President was using US military strength over world opinion, they'd have the same reaction. (Of course I understand that's much less likely of a D than a R, but there are circumstances that could make it so.)
I think I'll go back to watching on the weekends, when they cover useful stuff, like movie reviews and cooking.
