What Viacom Will and Won't Run

Josh Marshall, via Ricky Prado, has the quote of the day. Networks will run outright lies for weeks on end, but they wouldn't dare want to do anything "controversial". Is this outrageous? Sure. But we all too frequently forget that we are talking about arms of giant corporations, and that "big" media is much more about advertising than it is about news. This is appalling, and I urge you to contact the networks and complain, but it's also sadly predictable.
