Another Day, Another Smear

Read the first sentence in this Time article:

"Sarah Palin thinks she is a better American than you because she comes from a small town, and a superior human being because she isn't a journalist and never lived in Washington and likes to watch her kids play hockey."

Does the author, Michael Kinsley, think that we're all morons? Clearly Sarah Palin doesn't think this way or act this way.

But let me say this: "Mr. Kinsley, I know I'm a better person than you because I don't write pathetic articles pretending to be real journalism but that end up sounding like a 7-year old boy throwing a temper tantrum. Grow a pair and be a mensch!!"

One has to wonder if historians will view 2008 as the year that the liberal media and the liberal blogosphere became indistinguishable. Professional journalism has definitely died.
