Quote of the Day

As chosen by Taegan Goddard of the Political Wire:

"My conclusion is that the press is biased -- biased in favor of conflict... Conflict comes first, regardless of whether the press is covering a Democrat or a Republican."

-- Former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer, quoted by the Washington Post on his new book Taking Heat.
This quote is on the money. While I think certain segments of the media tend to be biased in one direction or the other, in general, the media do have a bias in favor of conflict. Why else would anyone cover Scott Peterson?
