Big Journalism accidentally attacks Big Government as “out-of-touch”

Just in case you didn't already have enough reasons not to take Andrew Breitbart's new Big Journalism website seriously, here's one more for the pile. Check out the headline of their latest entry:

Scott Brown Win 'Stunning'? Only to Out-of-Touch Media

And here's the argument they make:

[I]f you've been paying attention to the growing tide of anger and resentment against Washington elitists who have lost touch with their constituents, then Brown's win was not stunning, but a logical outcome. Unfortunately, many of those who task themselves with bringing us the news each and every day seem to be as out of touch with their audience as the Washington elites they cover.

OK, so the media are out of touch for labeling Republican Scott Brown's victory in the Massachusetts special Senate election as “stunning.” Sure, I'll bite.

Now, check out the opening paragraph from an item posted yesterday on BigGovernment.com, Big Journalism's sister site and one of Breitbart's three “Big” websites [emphasis added]:

One would think the repudiation of the President Obama's direct personal plea would make him the biggest loser in the wake of Tuesday's stunning victory by Republican Scott Brown in the Massachusetts special Senate election. But one would be wrong.

Oh my. It's bad enough to be “out of touch,” but to be called out as such by your own colleagues? How embarrassing ...
