This is a brave young man. I didn't have such balls, or the backup.
Give me the lesson without the spin

Sean Hannity and others of his ilk love to bemoan the political bias in academia. Something tells me he'd be taken aback by the form that bias takes now and then.

I try not to listen to Hannity. When I read what he says I just boil, I can't imagine listening to him.

Listening to his radio show is a guilty pleasure for me when I'm driving to pick up my daughter from school. I keep trying to decide if the man sincerely believes what he says, or if it's just a farce that earns him millions telling neo-cons what they love to hear. Luckily, he has a tendency to repeat himself endlessly, so usually after 20 minutes of it on Monday I can ignore the remainder of the week's broadcasts. :P

interesting perspective, mind you perhaps they just need a class on addressing authorial bias in writing. All writing will carry some bias....
