The mainstream media gets denounced on cable news programs, corporate talk radio, in best-selling books and behemoth blogs every day. This strangely doesn't seem to bother the mainstream media as it heroically absorbs all the jabs thrown at it from, well, itself. It's stoically unfazed. Admirable in its immunity.
Yes, this code word for "liberal media," or "not liberal enough media" or "not-the-person-on-the-television-at-that-moment media," is like rice deploring white. The ocean against wet. Trees condemning shade. It's an epic struggle of hyperbolic proportions.
