        Why listen to either one of these fatuous puppets? Their news "opinion" is now becoming the lead. The "media" fights with itself, becoming its own story. Bye, bye, America ...

      Kurtz vs Dobbs, who would believe that on the same network one is critical of the other.

      Why does anyone listen to any of these idiots? And I'm talking about "news hosts." A completely ridiculous and asinine way of getting information...

      Let's give Kurtz credit for this one. He stepped up to the plate. Well done, Howie.

        Yes, let's give Howard Kurtz credit where credit is due...

        Hopefully, this will be a wake-up call to all Americans, just how badly degraded our media has become.

        If we lose our media, we've lost our country. I think we're getting close.

          Lou got his 15 minutes...

          Maybe he'll get a little ratings bump, too. I guess that's what he was after.

          A trip to the toilet does have its advantages?

          I agree! Media schmedia! I have stopped watching CNN...I am so tired of the same talking heads, taking the same positions, and really adding nothing to the national dialogue (what little of that there is.) I am a fan of Mr. Kurtz, I feel he gives us more truth than most. TV News is not news any longer. Newspapers are hardly news any longer. A very sad state of news affairs (god, that's all they talk about is affairs)and I long for just straight reporting, and some hard investigative journalism.

        they are eventual soul mates. i predict that soon dobbs will be at fox, and (possibly) so will pat buchanan... then again, he is a little more fair-minded than the morons at fox, so thats a tough call to make.
