Chronically Biased - Re: Cuba's standard-of-living

I recently wrote about Dan Patrick and Company's new blog. I was pretty excited about it, and looked forward to them taking The Houston Chronicle and other media to task. They initially complained that althought the Chonicle was in its rights to editorialize any way they chose. They objected to the the waqy the Chronicle twited and editorialized in reportining news. Reading the Chronically Biased blog though it becomes obvious, that they are spending a lot of effort complianing about the Chronicles Editorial pages, and ranting about the issues of the day. There is nothing wrong with a site that rants, but this is not what we were led to believe that Chronically Biased was all about. Instead of being a site where the chronicle and other news media are taken to task for biased reporting. It seems to be a forum for KSEV's agenda.

The article Re: Cuba's standard-of-living and Thoughts from the Midnight Writer bothered me. They write about how bad Cuba's Castro is, but who denies that? Not the Chonicle, nor most main streem media. Why don't they address the issue of China being a most favored trade partner, and the embargo with Cuba? Why are the two nations being treated so differently? Could it be that the Chronicle and Chronically biased are are on the same page? Hasent the Chronicle written favovorablly about life in China? Aren't most conservatives under the leadership of George W. Bush supporting free trade with China? Don't bother emailing Dan Patrick, an autoresponce will reply that he is way to busy to answer email, but he might read it. They also killed the comments section, so much for any dialog.

I was pretty harsh on them in May they seemed so self importantt, and just continually bashed the Chronicle. It looks to me that they have grown, as the Lone Star Times, and the attacks on the Chronicle have grown more reasonable. They still don't have comments or respond to email, but there is a "forum" thing which is better than nothing.
