Brit Hume sets the record straight

Yesterday U.S. media outlets lit up with variations of the headline, "GOP blocks Senate debate on Iraq." Brit explains that that isn't the full story:

When Senate Democrats refused to allow consideration of all three competing resolutions on Iraq yesterday, seeking instead to bring only two to the Senate floor, Republicans stopped them from bringing the issue up at all. The Democrats then complained that Republicans were blocking debate on Iraq, and mainstream media outlets immediately agreed.

Now why would U.S. MSM use such misleading headlines? Is it because newspaper reporters vote Democrat at a rate of nearly 90%? You decide.
