Hang on to your bloomers, because you're certainly not expecting what's coming.
The press has finally admitted it was wrong, wrong, wrong. Back in 1863, the Patriot-News of central Pennsylvania, known back then as the Patriot & Union, printed an opinion that Lincoln's Gettysburg Address was "silly." “In an editorial about President Abraham Lincoln’s speech delivered Nov.
19, 1863, in Gettysburg, the Patriot & Union failed to recognize
its momentous importance, timeless eloquence, and lasting significance,”
the paper wrote on its editorial page Thursday. “The Patriot-News
regrets the error.”
Although it took 150 years to admit the mistake, it signifies to me that there is hope for the press and media of 2013 yet. Maybe, just maybe, in 2163 they'll admit they were owned lock, stock and barrel by the President of the United States and the left-wing progressive liberals and that they should have been more fair and honest in their reporting.
Don't hold your breath.
