Do You Think Most D Voters Are Wise To The Media's False Equivalency BS?

3. I have to disagree.

False equivalency arises when a RWer says or does something untoward, sending the media into a frenzy to find evidence on the left side of the aisle for acting in the same untoward way.

I think it's obvious that that is what is going on. And it's a one-way street. Otherwise, you'd see the media expressing outrage over the e-mail habits of Colin Powell and Condi Rice as a balance to their vendetta against Hillary. You would be hearing about the 22-million e-mails Rove had deleted every time someone mentions all of the emails Hillary has turned over.

But you don't hear any of that. You hear them treating everything Hillary does as a unique and unprecedented violation of the public trust, whereas anything questionable done by a RW is framed as "both sides of the aisle do it."
