Poor Poor Janeane

An interesting wrap up of a debate on media bias and Iraq coverage.

The whole thing is worth reading, but what really caught my eye was this:

[Garofalo] "said she had been ridiculed by the media for her antiwar activism and, clearly, it hurt. She blasted conservative talk show hosts for attempting to marginalize the antiwar movement by focusing almost exclusively on celebrities."

Look, Janeane Garofalo made her mark as a comedian who used withering sarcasm to ridicule her targets. So why should she expect to be treated any differently?
