White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel is the latest to blame the media for the partisan anger that has gripped Washington, appearing Monday night on the Charlie Rose Show where he said the media are partially responsible for the rhetoric that is dominating the nation's capital.
“Emanuel said during an interview that 'everybody's accountable ... including the media' for the overheated language that was used during the health care debate and beyond,” according to Politico.
“They play a role in exacerbating the sense that America's pulled apart, and it's not as pulled apart as being reported,” he added.
