RE: NH TV News

["Paul Hopfgarten" <hopfgapr@sprynet.com>]

Please, Jack Heath has nothing on the Tom Oliphants and David Broders of the
world. The USA media, as a whole, is left of center, and certainly left of
the public-at-large. (What was the poll, 89% of print journalists supported
Clinton vs. 40+% of Americans voting for him).

I'll make a deal, shut down NPR and the Washington Post, and we'll shut down
Jack Heath and the U-L.
(Let's talk Concord Monitor and Portsmouth Herald, two NH papers that are
left-of-center politically.)

The U-L gets beat upon so much because it IS part of a rare breed of
right-of -center newspapers in New England.

My point, for every "right-winger" in the media that you call out, I can
count a minimum of 3 "left-wingers"

BTW: How's Patricia Smith, and her "downtrodden" doing these days?

(To Garrett and Scott.... It is not my desire to travel off the direct
subject of radio, but feel compelled to respond to what is generally a
one-sided political point-of-view on this BB, Dan B. of Maine being the only
consistant exception. If all parties are willing to avoid the underlying
political themes of their comments, I will be more than happy not to broach
the subject here on ths BB - Thank You, Paul Hopfgarten)
