Here’s the Fox News report

Here’s the Fox News report on Al Gore’s attack on the media that I mentioned late last night. It’s worse than I thought. Gore says there’s a conservative “fifth column” within the journalistic ranks, similar to the subversive journalists in the 1950s who injected pro-Communist reporting into the mainstream media. Anti-communism is always welcome, even if it comes decades late from Al Gore. But what foreign interests, I wonder, does Gore think Rush Limbaugh and Fox News are promoting? Limbaugh has this exactly right when he says, “[the liberals and the Democrats] had a free run for all those years with the mainstream press. . . and those days are over.” No wonder Gore and Daschle seem to be suffering a meltdown.
