I'm shocked - SHOCKED at such propaganda

Bush administration paid a journalist $240,000 of tax payer money to tout it's views in the media and convince other journalists to do the same. Please keep in mind that this is totally illegal.

This is a great article from ALterNet on how this is one part of a very vast puzzle:

"While Democrats are still debating whether John Kerry was likeable enough or whether the Party ought to change its position on gay marriage and gun control, they are failing to see the big picture. What they were up against wasn't a poor debater, his Machiavellian consultant, and a portfolio of privatization policies, but a well-established, conservative movement with media outlets, think tanks, foundations and advocacy organizations as well as a host of pundits, journalists, consultants, and politicians all working collaboratively to advance their right-wing agenda (and many of the latter, like Williams, working the double shift as "entrepreneurs" and getting mighty rich)."

I stole your article and didn't even link to you. I am such a bad fellow blogger.
