Ledeen Adds to McCarthy's Argument

Adding to Andrew McCarthy's piece (post directly below) today on the NY Times, Michael Ledeen says this about the journalists of Main Street Media:

These people are not acting like journalists at all. They are acting as a fourth branch of government, co-equal with the others.

They aren’t journalists at all, they’re pols. And they should be treated that way.

They are already treated with contempt by the American people; just look at the polls. But they are not yet being held accountable for their actions, as elected and appointed pols are. They should be.
