Time for another round of America's favorite game: Blame the Media for Everything! Your kid gets bad grades? Must be the TV's fault, or video games, or JAY-Z lyrics. Barack Obama is elected president? Shake your fist and curse lefty blogs and Chris Matthews. So, fire up the outrage meter, here we go. . .
Wait. What just happened? Shep Smith didn't get the memo again? The guy's going rogue on FOX right before our eyes.
In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
