Media Matters Nails Tweety

The Case Against Chris Matthews

From the Huffington Post: "The case against Chris Matthews is simple: he is not neutral. He channels a right-leaning perspective. This wouldn't be an issue if he and his employers acknowledged it, but a viewer who doesn't have the time or resources to analyze Hardball's content may well assimilate the pro-GOP spin unwittingly."

View Media Matters' new report on Matthews: '"Hardball for the left, softball for the right: Conservatives dominate on Hardball."

3. Yesterday,

he said to James Witt regarding Katrina:

MATTHEWS: Could the president, had he been on the ball, more on the ball, totally into this, like he is in the war against Iraq, would he have been able to crack the whip and get it done, or can‘t you do it from the top?

:wow:

4. Sure he could

But the "Mission Accomplished" banner on the Superdome ended up somewhere in Northern Mississippi.

What makes my jaw drop is the assertion that * is "on the ball," fully engaged, & doing a great job with Iraq!

6. Besides -

He is always bringing up his old boss Tip O'Neill.
Tip O'Neill would be disgusted with what Matthews is doing on his show.
