MSNBC News Reader Calls Bush "Monkey" On National Airtime

I have to admit, I am a pretty patriotic person. I love this country and its institutions. I'm also old school on respect for those institutions. Be that as it may, maybe that's why I'm so incensed, but not surprised a little bit, about this latest exhibit of MSM (Mainstream Media) liberal bias [See That Report Here].
On 11/29/07 News Readerette Erin Burnett (with MSNBC) was reporting on a meeting between President Bush and recently elected French President Nicolas Sarkozy. See her comments just below (at about the 15 second mark).
This kind of thing disgusts me so thoroughly that I really don't have much comment about it. Maybe it just speaks for itself. I don't seem to remember any news source calling Mr. Clinton a "lounge lizard" or "grand jury liar" on the national news beamed worldwide.
To be fair, Burnette did later offer-up an apology.
But this sort of thing reaching the airwaves shouldn't even happen in the first place. It just shows the underlying bias that the press brings to their coverage and proves how they basically can't be trusted to deliver accurate news on people and subjects with which they don't like or agree.
