When will they?

On Sunday, March 23, the South Jersey Times printed Paul Mulshine’s column wherein he cites U. S. Attorneys for excesses. He began by reference to Kevin Trudeau’s conviction and sentencing to ten years in jail for selling a book that provided diet advice in the style of a carnival barker. Trudeau used TV infomercials to sell his book. Via quotes from Mulshine’s Boston contact, Harvey Silverglate, it is declared the book was bad and it should have gotten commensurate reviews. Silverglate expresses disdain for the news media because they agree that the sentencing of Trudeau was deserved. Silverglate is author of a book citing overzealous federal prosecutors for indicting and convicting based upon manufactured felonies. This becomes Mushiness jumping point for accusations against Governor Christie because Christie prosecuted over-zealously prior to becoming a Governor.

Wow, what a circuitous route to indict New Jersey’s Governor. Along the way Mulshine even accused reporters of making mistakes by not taking a point of view that exposes abuse of power. Now if anyone has read Mulshine’s pieces for any given length of time they will recognize he rarely found a day when he liked what any republican, or conservative, has done or said. If Christie is guilty of the prank related to “Bridgegate”, so be it. What Mulshine came close to but did not explore is the question of the media slanting news against conservatives and their points of view. When will he, and his fellow columnists, and talking heads, find their soapbox and expose that the majority of their cohorts are wearing blinders, or do they not recognize that the parade of liberals usually have no clothes?
