Have to disagreee with that one. NY Times is not nearly on the same scale of partisanship as Fox news.
And while I agree partisanship itself is probably as old as our first systems of government, I feel that in this system, in this country, it is coming to a type of boiling point. There is so much ignorance and hate between the two sides of PEOPLE who falsely label each other left wing tree huggers or right wing neo cons often. And it's the government, mostly the conservative government that is causing this split just for the reason of 'winning'. Winning seats, winning elections, winning contracts. The good of the country seems to be secondary at best. If that weren't true the current government wouldn't have had to change their 'reasons' for going into Iraq three times.
