6. And that's the difference between "our" media, and "theirs"...

Yet if you ask them, that's just us proving our Liberal Elitism. To them, it's a BAD THING that we require trusted masters of any field to have actually demonstrated, you know, field-specific knowledge and mastery of their craft.

If these people were in charge of Black Belts, the kid who started a fight at the bar last weekend would have 3 of them, but the person who studied tai-chi for 30 years and knew enough to walk away from trouble would get laughed at for being a liberal pussy.

That's because to Glenn and the rest of his ilk, its about MAKING MONEY by keeping the Public "informed". To people like Rachel, you get paid well (as a nice aside for doing what you love) for actually KEEPING THE PUBLIC INFORMED, because the Public LIKES that sort of thing when it's done correctly.

Glen Beck, espousing the value of snake oil (while publicly claiming to HATEHATEHATE all things reptillian) for over a decade.
