Bill Bennett on the cartoon intifada

Stephen Spruiell quotes Bill Bennett on “CNN’s double standard.” The full transcript of Bennett debating the cartoon intifada with James Zogby on CNN’s Situation Room is available here. Bennett: “I promise you, they have won. They have silenced — these — these mobs have silenced the mainstream media, who are afraid of the mob.”
Of the giving of offense, there is no end. The caving in of the American media to the howling mob has consequences, as Churchill said in another, not entirely unrelated context, “which will travel far with us along our road.”
