When balance runs wild
Factcheck.org strives to be a non-partisan organization, so when they decide to criticize an organization which is running ads to slander Democrats who are filibustering a small number of Bush's judicial nominees, they also feel compelled to criticize the organization running ads against the judicial nominees. There's only one small problem. The ads don't say anything un-true, or even misleading. What's a balanced organization to do? See Kieran Healy for the very funny answer.
Update: See also Matt Weiner's thoughts on this topic. Not as funny as Kieran's, nor intended to be, but pretty interesting.
