• Quotes

  "This is not a book about the same old media bias. This time journalists cross a very bright line. This time they stopped being witnesses to history and they were intent on helping to shape history. They moved from media bias to media activism. In my whole life I have never seen the media get on board for one candidate the way they did this time around and -- this is very important -- they did it without even a hint of embarrassment." — Bernard GoldbergTown Hall: Bill Steigerwald : Liberals in Love - Interview With Bernard Goldberg (January 26, 2009)
