In a piece titled "The Metrosexual and the Cowboy," correspondent Carl Cameron quoted Kerry telling supporters at a rally in Tampa, Fla.: "Didn't my nails and cuticles look great? What a good debate!"
Yes, it was satire. No, it was not labeled as such, nor was it labeled an editorial. Given all the questions about media accuracy these days, you think they'd have some sort of editorial policy in place, wouldn't you?
Fair and balanced? Not so much. I wish networks would just endorse a candidate and forget the appearance of impartiality, or else make some sort of effort to actually be unbiased. One or the other would be fine. This making sh*t up approach is simply not working for me.
