Liberal Media Watch: He Ought To know

Former Bush Administration press secretary Scott McClellan notes that the media were too soft on the President during the run-up to the Iraq War:

“If anything, the national press corps was probably too deferential to the White House and to the administration in regard to the most important decision facing the nation during my years in Washington, the choice over whether to go to war in Iraq. The collapse of the administration’s rationales for war, which became apparent months after our invasion, should never have come as such a surprise. … In this case, the ‘liberal media’ didn’t live up to its reputation. If it had, the country would have been better served.”

I'm leaving comments open so conservatives can complain some more about Dan Rather.
