Bill Moyers certainly isn’t the only liberal using NBC News anchor Brian Williams’ “helicopter lie” to relive the glory days of Bush bashing. The piece to which he links, by Stockholm University’s Christian Christensen, takes all U.S. networks to task for having “aggressively cheer-led an invasion” with their “ultra-militaristic news logos and music.”
In short, making a fuss over Williams’ little chopper whopper is “an affront to all who lost their lives in a brutal and bloody deception.”
@BillMoyersHQ more comparatives to justify which deceit is worse. Let's end the 1st grade "but they did it too" mentality and stop all lies.

Good plan. A little more consistency in calling out the media on its “aggressive cheerleading” would go a long way, too, and wouldn’t require reaching back to the Bush administration or the Crusades or that time Moyers was considered relevant.
@BillMoyersHQ It's also relatively nothing compared to how much he ignored Gruber.

@BillMoyersHQ We don't know what else he lied about.

Can we count on your help in keeping the press honest and unbiased in 2015, Mr. Moyer?
