I’ve Been Promoted
I am thrilled that the folks at NewsBusters have taken leave of their senses and moved me up from “Contributing Writer” to “Contributing Editor,” and am posting this before they change their minds.
Luckily, being a “Contributing Editor” involves no real editing (except my own posts, which is a handful by itself).
It is an honor (cue Sally Field — “they like me, they really like me”), and actually very humbling, to be on a list, ANY list, with Mark Tapscott, David Limbaugh, and other luminaries. Like, what were the NewsBusters people thinking?
A serious thanks to Matt Sheffield, Greg Sheffield, et al at NewsBusters. Their pioneering Media Research Center parent has been documenting and highlighting liberal media news bias, negligence, and incompetence since the later years of Reagan’s presidency. The country owes them a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid. The NewsBusters site has become the go-to place for anyone who wants to know what the talking heads have been saying, but either can’t stand to watch it themselves or don’t have the time to.
Congratulations!

#3, I hope it means no change except in supposed stature.
