I have a default position to disbelieve conspiracy theories.  Secrets are just too hard to keep.

While I find individual reporters may be biased in their coverage, I expect the larger organization to balance bias, although the dominance of so many Democrats (or any single party for that matter)  in the MSM makes this difficult.

The release of the JournoList, a group of 400 journalists from some of the top new organizations should be far more disturbing that most will see it.  When top reporters exchange ideas to promote one candidate and disparage another, this betrays a fundamental trust in a free press.

It is one thing for an opinion columnists or pundit, whether it is Keith Olbermann or Glenn Beck, to espouse whatever bias they choose; but it is another for a reporter for a major outlet to conspire with others in a similar position to intentionally mislead the public about a candidate.

It highlights a chasm of morality in the profession that is only justified in their narrow little minds by their arrogance and delusions of moral supremacy.

They should be treated like a professional athlete who intentionally throws the game for money: they should be barred from the game for life.
