Anyone know of a news reporter site similar to DU?

Is anyone aware of a news reporter/journalist message board that is similar to DU? I'd love to go there and ask where the true reporters and journalists are hiding.

My god, after watching the Bush talking points speech and the reporter lick it up and regurgitate it dog and pony show, I was about sick myself.

3. This true journalist is scared shitless

Essentially unable to work anymore on the news side of any major newspaper because I have this misguided idea that the truth should be reported. When I was brutal on Clinton, it was "good job" and four-figure cash bonuses. When I tried to report the news about Bush*, it was "you're not supporting our country."

(And, no, I'm not going to go public with my story, at least not yet. I'm still in the industry, and when this all finally ends, I have a nice portfolio of my work leading up to the war -- hopefully a portfolio that will help me escape the coming trials.)
