Bill Moyers is a far left winger who cannot separate his political beliefs enough to "report" fairly on this issue. Only PBS would have the temerity to air this as "journalism". If you can't see this, then you are fooling youselves.

After Wednesday night's premiere, Moyers will return to PBS on the Friday night schedule where he was resident for a number of years as the host of "NOW with Bill Moyers." And, just as he did before leaving "NOW" several years ago, at a time when President Bush's allies and appointees were attacking him for giving air time to administration critics – including Republicans such as Nebraska Senator Chuck Hagel – Moyers is still practicing the craft of journalism in the manner  intended by the rebels against empire who wrote a "freedom of the press" protection into America's founding document.
