Pretty amazing article in the NYT today about how a lot of the people posing as "experts" on network news are actually just government sock puppets who get their talking points from the Bush administration and Pentagon every week. If you are cynical about government you might not be surprised but there's some fascinating stuff in there, apparently they sued to get e-mail and records from the strategy meetings these people had (and are still having). You have to wonder how enthusiastic the news networks will be about covering their own complicity in this.
