Meet Your Liberal Media

Bet you didn't know this. (See 3/8, 1:44 p.m.) I certainly didn't.

Shame on Tim Russert and "Meet the Press" for failing to make full disclosure about their lead-off guest, Sunday, March 7, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani.

While Giuliani spent 20 minutes defending or lauding President Bush, and occasionally needling Sen. John Kerry, Russert didn't mention that Giuliani's hugely successful consulting firm has a $1 million contract from the Bush Department of Justice (New York Times, Feb. 22).

Revealing it would've allowed viewers to decide just how objective Giuliani is about the upcoiming [sic] presidential candidates.

Hell, if Meet the Press cared about conflicts of interest, Russert would be managing a Burger King in Buffalo.
