The Herd Species

The media and 2004.

Jonah Goldberg keeps us informed about the latest mob mentality in The Elite Media Monoculture. Now that John "war criminal" Kerry's campaign is imploding, we can see the press starting to examine their own role in allowing Kerry to become the Democratic candidate without anyone really knowing who he is. But he is their guy now and there is no turning back. It's too late for them to get a new one so they have to push Kerry no matter what. The problem for them is that they no longer control the debate. The real debate in America is now taking place in cyberspace and on talk radio, not on the pages of The New York Times. And the establishment doesn't control those areas.
