Initiate Programming

AITOOW finds it exhaustingly frustrating that late night "news" programs can not refrain from labeling Republican candidates with pejorative adjectives? Of course Michelle Bachmann's political views had to be tagged with the "hard line" modifier by a smirking Nightline hatchet man. Of course they couldn't help "editorializing" a news piece. Of course they couldn't remain objective. Of course they couldn't retain credability. Of course they couldn't have just left it at "political views". I'm not familiar with (most of) her political views, but, how about you let me decide if they are hard line (whatever that means) and you just stick to slanting the evidence through prejudicial editing and leading questions. I guess that's is why they call it a News "Program".
