I present here for your reading pleasure a perfect confluence of great posts on the subject of that snarling mythical beast that righties love to get all puffed up about: The Liberal Media.
Digby writes about the latest disgusting episode involving Robert Novak, our Good Friend (for real!)
Mike Thomas points to our own local issues of editorial malfeasance, and the inimitable
Glenn Greenwald brings us that paragon of journalistic "neutrality", Brian Williams. Here's the money quote from that last one:
But would it ever be possible to compile enough evidence to force an abandonment of that most sacred, petulant and patently false Article of Faith among our right-wing warriors and their media allies -- namely, that our establishment press is a "liberal media" that is hostile to conservatives?
Short answer: "No."

Wow! I'm honored to be included in that company.
I pared down my post and sent it to the E-N as a Letter to the Editor. We'll see if I have as much luck as our good friend Bill getting it published.
Oh good! I was hoping you would do that!
