Dennis Miller Quote

The New York Times has a famous slogan: "All the news that's fit to print." Comedian Dennis Miller recently suggested that the latest incarnation of the paper, which is a mere shadow of its former self, change their slogan to: "All the news that fits, we print!"

Case in point is this story about a former ACLU president who was arrested for possession of horrifically violent child porn. The story was completely ignored by the NY Times. Imagine if it had been a prominent Republican, the story would have been a major headline for weeks.

Next to outright fabrication of facts, the media's omission of stories based on their own political bias is a big reason why their credibility is in grave doubt these days ... and rightly so!
