I heard the other day, I believe on Cavuto, PBS is in financial trouble could it be with such open mined commentators that appeal to a cross section of America like Imfull of it and BS Moyers?

I understood that they relied, at least partly, on funding from the NEA?  Could it be that viewer donations have dropped?  And could Moyers and his ilk be part of the reason why?  Methinks I see a connection . . .</description>

		<description>Reading through &lt;a href=&quot;http://theroot.com/views/gwen-ifill-s-breakthrough&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;a few pages of Ifill&#039;s book,&lt;/a&gt; I see the &quot;Age of Obama&quot; winning plan was to avoid talking about race. It was sleight of hand trick, learned through past failures,  and thus the &quot;break through.&quot; Amazing accomplishment, considering the man sat in a racist church for 20 years.</description>

Journalists are also humans and so have political tendancies and favour particular candidates. You cannot fault them for them. What is important is that a journalist is fair when dealing with politics ...
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Wouldn&#039;t your view of fairness include disclosures of personal and financial interest in the outcome of the election?

This is more than just a journalist with political views.  She had a stake in the race.  If she were a judge, you would expect her to recuse herself.

Was there really no one else that could have moderated that debate?</description>

		<description>Well hell, at least she didn&#039;t feel the need to tell us something was crawling up her leg when she worshipped Obama ala Chris Matthews. 

You gotta have some pity folks, most of these propagandists are probably having a very hard time keeping their semi-legible scrawlings from becoming published in the Penthouse Forum. Then again, how many people do you know that make a living typing one handed?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I heard the other day, I believe on Cavuto, PBS is in financial trouble could it be with such open mined commentators that appeal to a cross section of America like Imfull of it and BS Moyers?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Speaking of PBS/Moyers, anyone else see over at American Thinker they&#039;ve found Moyers&#039; replacement? They put up a list of quotes -- about half from Moyers and half from David Duke -- and let readers guess who said which. 

And it&#039;s paid (in part) by our tax dollars. Or maybe I should say, by our children&#039;s debt.</description>

		<description>Journalists are also humans and so have political tendancies and favour particular candidates. You cannot fault them for them. What is important is that a journalist is fair when dealing with politics and no one can say that Ifill was not more than fair to Sarah Palin in the VP debate.</description>

		<description>Watching Obama is like going to a self-help seminar.  He says all the right things, gets the crowd excited, and then sends them off without ever giving any direction.</description>

The truth is Ms. Ifill is not a good journalist. She is just another inside-the-beltway slobbering sycophant.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I beg to differ.  Being an inside-the-beltway slobbering sycophant is what you have to be if you want to make it in an oligarchy.  She doing what she feels she must do as a product of an educational system that poisons the hearts and souls of its students.

As a journalist under an oligarchy, she&#039;s performing well as a propagandist, as all journalists must do under such a form of government.  If she understood her duties in a republic founded under the rule of law that protected the freedoms and liberties of its citizens, then I&#039;m sure she&#039;d perform well under those circumstances too.

Standards of &quot;journalism&quot; change according to where you live.  Gwen Ifill fits in and exceeds the standards of one who lives in a nation where freedom and liberty have died (essentially because &quot;fairness&quot; now trumps everything else, and &lt;strong&gt;it&lt;/strong&gt; is mutually exclusive to the concepts of freedom and liberty), and justice means punishing growth and progress.

These are truths that must be propagated in accordance to the precepts which Ifill was indoctrinated, and as such she&#039;s actually a very GOOD journalist, in accordance with our current standards and governmental practices.  FAIRNESS must be upheld above all, and Gwen Ifill is doing an exceptional job in doing so.</description>

		<description>My almost 14 year old grandson doesn&#039;t know anything about the Civil War, WW1, WW2, Korea, or Vietnam. The only reason he knows anything about the First Gulf War is that my son-in-law was an infantry fire team leader on Bradley&#039;s in the desert.

I had to send a note to the school asking that the &quot;social studies&quot; teacher mention that, although the textbook claimed that the Second Amendment protected the &quot;right of the states to have militias,&quot; that the Supreme Court ruled that it protected an individual right. Funny enough, she did.

Since in the last week I have found out she has never heard of Woodstock, I just asked the daughter some other trivia questions about random recent history...

Now I find out she didnt know anything about Clinton. So I asked her about OJ Simpson.....
