ok - so some guy shoots a firearm at a peace protest near president- heres a screen grab from google news of the reporting - which of these is the odd man out? i'd say the LATimes gets it about right




lets take a closer look at the boston globe (for example)



"Actions by both sides, spotlight from media said to be disruptive" WTF? ? ? ?

please tell me they are fucking kidding. please, please tell me this is satire.

if you happen to read past 10 irrelevant points, you eventually find out that some loony-fucking-tic is shooting a gun, with an unmistakable message, near the president's palatial estate. and we have *three* disruptive elements! 'both sides', plus the fucking media!

Dog save us.

the article continues: "Within minutes of his shotgun blast, sheriff's deputies and Secret Service agents, who protect President Bush at his nearby ranch, rushed in." - how does that compare with the headline "Antiwar camp losing appeal with Bush neighbor"!

"Tensions rise"?

"Losing Appeal"?

"Weighs in?"

mon dieu.

imagine the chaos is some loony muslim dem gets 'digruntled' during the "God Loves 911 and Freedom" march that RUmmy and WaPo are putting on.
