Time's Mark Halperin and his views on Monkey Karate

Just watched Mark Halperin from Time Magazine on Fox & Friends this morning.  Predictably, he and the Fox blowhards went on and on about Ayers/Weathermen fake controversy.  Despite all this supposed vetting that is supposed to be taking place after the discussion of Ayers at the debate, they basically said "Someone really needs to vet Barack about this."  Abdicating all responsibility for finding any truth and ending the potentially haunting rumor.

This about sums up how worthless the MSM is:  The kicker was that Halperin went on to watch this clip of a Monkey Doing Karate, and offering his opinion about the monkey's spin kicks.  They all got quite a laugh out of watching the clip.  I swear I thought I was watching the Simpsons or Family Guy it was such a parody.

PS - George Stephanopoulous (sp) was completely and totally duped and strong armed into asking Barack about the Ayers/Weathermen thing.  What's wrong with him?

Perhaps the MSM wouldn't be so inclined to cowtow to Fox bullying if they relied on truth and accuracy in reporting. 

Why doesn't anyone see that truth is the best ratings grabber?
