The Double Standard Point
Lost in many reports and analyses of the Rathergate story is the incredible double standard on display when treatment of the Bush National Guard story is compared to the handling of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth story. The double standard applied to the Swifties was evident before the Rathergate story broke, but both the 60 Minutes story and the “Fortunate Son” campaign made the bias so blatantly obvious that even those who don’t regularly follow politics could not miss it. Ross Mackenzie takes a good look at the glaring double standard. (Link via Lucianne.com)
