Speaking Hypocrisy to the Masses

Jonah Goldberg points out that journalists pride themselves on "speaking truth to power" which essential means criticize the government but nothing else. Leaving all sorts of factions (gays, Muslims, minorities, etc., etc.) free to shout and act hatefully and without criticism.

This is also known as hypocrisy.

Oh and Jonah originally stated that the phrase "speaking truth to power" was of Quaker origin but on the Corner he corrects himself via a reader's email explaining that all those lefty-liberal journalists are using a phrase first coined by Machiavelli himself.

BWAHAHAHA!
