In times of old, The Furies protected Mother Right. If a mother (or any woman) was harmed, The Furies swooped down and took their vengeance. They were one of the last vestiges of a world that existed before the patriarchy. When we feel righteous anger, it is The Furies who are calling out to us to make what is wrong right again.

Hume & Cheney: "Like Bonnie interviewing Clyde" 

So says Jack Cafferty! Could Brit Hume and all of them kiss behind any better. I read the interview Brit Hume had with Cheney about the hunting accident, and I listened to a bit of it at their website. (Yes, I tried not to wretch when I put in the URL.) Remember, Brit Hume is the man who during 9/11 put the blame exactly where it belonged: He said Satan did it. I'm not kidding. I heard it. That was the last time I ever watched Faux News, until tonight on my computer for about 30 seconds. Anyway, go to MediaMatters.com to get the skinny on how the nets are just believing everything Cheney said tonight and accepting all the explanations. Let's see if any of them do any journalism on this story. Jack Cafferty pointed out that it wasn't exactly a "profile in courage" for Cheney to go over to the "f-word" netword. I like Cafferty. He's the only thing about CNN I miss now that I don't have TV. I don't always agree with him, but I see that as a good thing.

By the way, check out MediaMatters.org's study of Sunday talk shows. They say the study reveals that "conservative voices significantly outnumber progressive voices on the Sunday talk shows." We all knew that but they've got the proof.
