My favorite quote so far on the "backlash to the backlash" to the prison scandal, from The Daily Show's Stephen Colbert and cited in this provocative piece:
"The journalists I know love America, but now all anybody wants to talk about is the bad journalists--the journalists that hurt America.... Who didn't uncover the flaws in our prewar intelligence? Who gave a free pass on the Saddam-Al Qaeda connection? Who dropped Afghanistan from the headlines at the first whiff of this Iraqi snipe hunt? The United States press corps, that's who."
