My comment:
NPR is my current best source of political humor, you leave Colbert and Stewart in the dust. When an 86 year old woman is pepper sprayed at an Occupy protest in Seattle, when people are beaten and brutailized, the story DOESN'T spread to the corporate media, and that isn't news. No, NPR is eager to show how much of a free press we have - by talking about something that's going on way over there. It reminds me of a joke Reagan used to tell. Gorbachev said "the proof that we have glasnost is tthat the press is free to criticize me." Reagan says, "yes, we have that too. Our press can also criticize you freely."
Well, that isn't exactly how Reagan told it, but it's the way he SHOULD have.
