The Biggest Losers

This morning's New York Post editorial:

If President Bush is re-elected tomor row, the victory will have come de spite the best efforts of two erstwhile American journalistic icons — the Grey Lady of Times Square and Edward R. Murrow's Tiffany Network: The New York Times and CBS News.

If nothing else, the notion that "objectivity" animates America's media elite has been exposed this year for what it truly is — at best, a quaint myth; at worst, a pernicious lie.

. . . Bush may or may not win tomorrow.

But both CBS News and The New York Times come out of this election with their self-proclaimed "reputation for fairness" thoroughly in tatters.
