The "liberal media"

Every time I hear "the liberal media" for the next few months, I'll think of these two things:
  1. the media blackout on the use of White House and Pentagon propaganda in Big Media
  2. the media's complete absence of balance in comparison of Rev. Wright to Evangelical pastors who say similar (or worse, depending on your perspective) things and enjoy the respect of news organizations during interviews and coverage; this includes Hagee's endorsement of McCain
PS: Frank Rich on 5/4 had a great column about issue #2.
PPS: It appears that a few House members are demanding an investigation on #1.
