Quote of the Day

It's a two-for-one deal today, and both sides of it come from former White House press secretary Tony Snow, participating in a question-and-answer session at the American Magazine Convention in Florida this weekend.

First, here's Snow on the bias of the White House reporters with whom he used to work: "The Washington press corps is the most reliable Democratic voting bloc."

Next, here's Snow on the bias -- well, the "perceived bias" -- of the "fair and balanced" network where he used to work: "There is a perceived bias on the part of Fox because it doesn't treat conservatives like knuckle-dragging morons."
