strange bedfellows

ultra-conservative bill bennett and ultra-lib alan dershowitz agree on something? [bugmenot login]

We two come from different political and philosophical perspectives, but on this we agree: Over the past few weeks, the press has betrayed not only its duties but its responsibilities. To our knowledge, only three print newspapers have followed their true calling: the Austin American-Statesman, the Philadelphia Inquirer and the New York Sun. What have they done? They simply printed cartoons that were at the center of widespread turmoil among Muslims over depictions of the prophet Muhammad. These papers did their duty.
Since the war on terrorism began, the mainstream press has had no problem printing stories and pictures that challenged the administration and, in the view of some, compromised our war and peace efforts.

next thing you'll tell me is bush 43 and jimmy carter agree on something (whicht could be a '"death blow')
note: i'm not against the port deal
