[quote=“Toe Tag”]Fred, if you can get another message from your parallel universe back here to the reality-based people on planet Earth, how do you keep pulling these conservative rags out of your nether regions? Could you tell us your reading list so I can have my internet filters block it? Well, I guess I don’t need that since nobody has even heard of or read them anyway? The New York Sun? Give us a break. How about the Washington Times? Is this one also owned by your Most Reverend Moon? Probably has only a few hundred subscribers too.
The Sun was created to establish a pro-free market conservative broadsheet in New York City to rival the New York Times. One of the founders of the Sun, in fact, previously established and edited a website devoted to issuing daily critiques of the Times. Like the Washington Times, which was launched as a conservative rival to the Washington Post, the Sun is close to the Republican Party and conservative intellectuals. Especially on foreign policy issues the Sun’s editorial opinions resemble those of the Jerusalem Post or the neoconservative The Weekly Standard magazine.
Here’s a good article from Salon debunking yet another of Fred’s famous sources:

Wait a minute…you link to a story on Salon.com to debunk a conservative source given by Fred, and you accuse him of living in a parallel universe? You can’t be serious!
Though if you are, then I’ve got some black pots and kettles I’d like to sell you. Cheap.
I personally don’t agree with the conservative lament about what they think is the monolithically liberal media, but at the same time your patently spurious claim that Salon.com is a neutral adjudicator of partisan bias merely gives rightwingers grist for their mill.
