Tim Blair:
Michael Kinsley reveals CNN’s calm and moderate approach to hurricane coverage: A Los Angeles Times colleague of mine, appearing on CNN last week to talk about Katrina, was told by a producer to “get angry."
I wonder if any CNN producer has ever told, say, a commentator on Islamic terrorism to “get angry”.
Which reminds me of Ben Stein's
latest Katrina comment:
What is the real story of Katrina is (I suggest) not so much that nature wrought fury on land, water, people, property, and animals, not at all anything about racism, not much about federal government incompetence. The real story is that the mainstream media rioted.
They've been looting for years.
