In celebration of the StyenOnline's Third Anniversary, the site is highlighting classic Steyn articles from three years ago. This one discusses the damage the media's leftward tilt does to the Democratic Party, via the occasional obsession with dividing politics into "women's issues" and (presumably) "real people's issues."

Enjoy.

Iowahawk clarifies what this new venture will mean—both to the readers he seems to regard as a necessary evil, and to the OSM bloggers who appear to be rolling [or hoping to roll] in the long green.

Malkin shows the New York Times "dowdifying" a letter from a dead Marine in order to make him sound grimly resigned to his death, rather than willing to give his life to combat terrorism.

When the reporter was called on it by a reader, he resorted to the "chickenhawk" meme, asking the reader if he'd ever been to Iraq! Amazing.

1 Companies that take this kind of tone with their customers (and subscribers and other readers are indeed customers, even if the majority of revenue comes indirectly via advertisers) don't tend to have terribly bright financial futures.

4 Exactly. Unfortunately, the lefty media types of my acquaintance simply chalk this general trend up to the fact that people are getting a lot more news over the internet these days. We are. But why, specifically, are people shying away from most heritage media news sources, rather than switching and reading them online? They have not addressed the issue of mistrust, because to do so would require that they cop to the general leftist bias. And of course, in these people's minds the only bias is one AGAINST their views, due to the effect of the Rovian mind rays that keep us all from being OUTRAGED that there's a WAR going on.
