Media? Yes. Mainstream? No.
Ace makes a darn good point as an afterthought to his remarks on the brewing ACORN scandal in the US right now:
…Bernie Goldberg is dead-bang right, we have been giving the media an accolade it never deserved by calling it the “Mainstream Media.” It is not mainstream. It is leftwing.
We [bloggers] are the mainstream media. We’re also the minor media, but we are the mainstream.
And so I’m never going to refer to them as “MSM” again.
File this one in the same folder as “it’s not -GATE, it’s -QUIDDICK.”
Speaking of ACORN-quiddick, it’s a pretty darn interesting story to watch unfold. Barack Obama’s go-to “community organization” seems to be awfully willing to turn a blind eye to things like tax fraud and child Sex Slavery.
Update: Ouchie…Jim Treacher comes up with a doozy: “ACORN COULDN’T LOOK WORSE RIGHT NOW IF KANYE WEST WAS WEARING ONE OF THEIR T-SHIRTS.”
