    If were you, I wouldn’t have published this. Tapper, ex of Salon, is a credentialed left winger and yet even he challenges the judgement and fairness of Media Matters.

    This just makes you look bad.

    Ooh, is there a left wing credentialing organization? I didn’t hear we’d gotten one of those yet. Where can I write to get my credentials?

    BTW, I’m a non-credentialed liberal and I think his post was just absurd. Media Matters needn’t have truncated his post, I see their point still standing, but his invective-filled rant of a paragraph just screams of a crybaby with hurt feelings.

    Makes us look bad because Tapper pulled a critique out of his rear end?

    Wait a sec, there are people who take Media Matters seriously?
