Case in point: CBS's Norah O'Donnell, giving it but good to White House Press Secretary Jay Carney:
CBS’s Norah O’Donnell peppered Carney with terse, accusatory questions about the lack of tax revenue (read: tax increases) in the debt ceiling deal. O’Donnell complained about how many GOP demands were met by the deal, and then said to Carney: “You gave them everything they wanted and we got nothing.” That “we” is very telling. It was a tense moment in the room, and O’Donnell seemed to give voice to frustrated liberals who feel that the deal gave significantly more to Republicans than Democrats, and included no tax increases–something President Obama had demanded be included for most of the negotiations.
O’Donnell asked Carney about this a couple times, in a confrontational tone...
You woudl think you'd want her to give it to you "but good", however...
Here's Norah on MSNBC, attempting to humiliate a teenage Sarah Palin fan...and here she is trying to claim Newt Gingerich is a racist....the beat just goes on and on.
And yet, who's to say she won't wind up moderating one of the 2012 Presidential debates? Hey, if Gwen Ifill could get away with it...
Anyway, here's Norah O'Donnell, letting it all hang out:
