Victor Davis Hanson nails it again

Victor Davis Hanson on Dan Rather and Liberal Hypocrisy on National Review Online
From the article:
Commentators have envisioned Rather's fall as symbolic of a "paradigm shift" and the "end of the era" — an event that has crystallized the much larger and ongoing demise of the old establishment media. Allegories from the French Revolution and the emperor without any clothes to the curtain scene in The Wizard of Oz have been evoked to illustrate Rather's dilemma and the hypocrisy of all that went before. We have come a long way since the 1960s: The once-revolutionary pigs taking over the manor are now bloated and strutting on two legs as they feast on silver inside the farmhouse.

Amen to that! VDH is always one of my favorites because he is profoundly on the mark.
