Yeah, ever wonder why Radar or other so-cool, so-hip political mags don't ask pesky questions why journalists like Stephanopoulos are members of CFR and other shady organizations along with the politicians they're supposed to be covering?

Now that would be an interesting story. I'll save you the time: the MSM is part of the same system along with the politicians, which is why Tony Snow can jump seamlessly from FOX News to the Bush admin, why Chris Matthews used to work for Tip O'Neill, Wolf Blitzer for AIPAC, Tim Russert for the Democratic political machine in Buffalo, and so on. They all decided they could make more of an impact by become part of the objective, clear-lensed MSM.

But surely edy political mags like Radar call them on it, right?

...and Radar loses 95% of my respect as a political magazine with one stupid post.

Stephanopoulos makes a stupid, editiorializing comment that Ron Paul has no chance to win the Republican nomination. Instead of pointing out how inappropriate and wrong Stephanopoulos's comment was, Radar big ups nim by reporting that as a "skewering" of Paul.

Give me a break. He came off as pompous and obnoxious.

I personally am enjoying the decline of the MSM as the internet takes over as a news source. Who needs the Stephanopouloses and the Adam K. Raymonds (whoever that is) of the world and their opinions? They don't know more about who's going to become president than youtube, facebook, meetup, intrade, or digg.

I used to like Radar, but after this: just fold again already, please. And take ABC News with you.
