Ho down!

I can't be the only one who misses Media Whores Online. Who were they, and where did they go?

But there's a new site for those of us who tend to view the press as...well...I guess cocksuckers is too strong a word...um...

Let's just call them Presstitutes.

Here's a sample:

Create The News Then Comment On It

WaPo:
"[Karen] Hughes, recently confirmed as undersecretary of state, has attracted enormous attention in her new role..." Enormous attention from whom?

This is one of the most pervasive forms of Pre$$titution: create news then comment on it as though it were established fact. An example we use in our FAQ
is the Swift Boat slime machine that denigrated an American war hero's service. After weeks of 24/7 coverage, the very same outlets that gave vile men like John O'Neill a platform to trash John Kerry, wondered out loud - and with a straight face - how the Swift Boat scum got so much traction.
