The Activist Fallacy

From R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr., the founder and editor in chief of The American Spectator, a contributing editor to the New York Sun, and an adjunct scholar at the Hudson Institute:

Drat. The battle royal I predicted last week is off in the U. S. Senate. The battle was to be fought between the Democrats and the Republicans over what conservatives call "the Constitutional option" and the liberals call "the nuclear option." That it was reported throughout the media as the "nuclear option" is still more evidence that the media are liberal. Obviously the argument over whether the media are liberal or not is another of America's unnecessary debates.
