Strict "Objectivity and Balance"? « Politics As Usual »

Who decides? Who enforces?

If this report is accurate, I have to say I think it is a bad idea.

Let PBS be PBS. Let the public use market forces to punish broadcast/cable news media for manipulating news items for partisan gain, but leave PBS alone. Republicans have functioned fine with PBS doing its thing for decades. Let them continue to do their thing.

...on the other hand, the reactions of the people on the left are also ridiculous, apparently assuming that "Liberal Truth" is the only Truth, and conservatives are automatically wrong, evil, and dishonest. I'm growing quite tired of that characterization.

Then again, I'm also growing quite tired of the recent open season on religion and religious beliefs and religious believers.

Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry. All you've seen thus far is "mildly irritated." Nothing that would cause my eyes to go white or my skin to assume any shade of green hue...Yet.
