Baym tends to spend an inordinate amount of time complaining about name-calling which sometimes cuts into his own busy name-calling schedule.

This is simply not true. They are both cases of extreme lapses in journalistic integrity.



One was by the mainstream media while the other was by some individual with no ties to the mainstream media

LOL, I will definitely remember the next time you post about X and someone responds with something related to X and then you bitch and whine that it isn't the same. I probably only have to wait about 10 minutes.

Does this mean you are going to pick up your toys and go home again?

True, I generally don't consider Fox News "mainstream media," especially since they're pretty much the last "news" organization not to condemn O'Keefe's bullshit. That's probably splitting hairs a bit, though.

last night while playing tanks I called someone princess. They were having a /meltdown and calling them princess caused them to launch into a profanity laced tirade that made the only team laugh at him. I couldn't stop laughing. I said something like.. 'Relax princess. It's only a game.

Good point Ash, that and RWN's are always quick to point out that there is no actual news on the FoxNews Channel. It's all just entertainment/comedy shows and an occasional editorial show...
