For example:
"Well, sure. ABC wants to "balance" its coverage of President Bush's inauguration with coverage of a military funeral:

Jan. 19, 2005 — For a possible Inauguration Day story on ABC News, we are trying to find out if there any military funerals for Iraq war casualties scheduled for Thursday, Jan. 20. If you know of a funeral and whether the family might be willing to talk to ABC News, please fill out the form below:
Note that only the families of Iraqi war dead need apply. If a soldier died in Afghanistan, or aiding tsunami victims in Indonesia or Sri Lanka, or in a training exercise, never mind. That isn't the "balance" ABC is looking for.

Every time I think the MSM have stooped as low as they can go, they surprise me.

Thanks to San Antonio Express-News Watch and to reader Bill Crawford.

UPDATE: ABC has now taken down its solicitation of a military funeral to rain on the inaugural parade. Chalk up another small victory for our readers.

FURTHER UPDATE: Our friend Captain Ed archived the ABC page, foreseeing that it was likely to disappear. His screen shot is a little funky and doesn't exactly duplicate the original, but it's close. I gotta learn how to do that..."

Somehow I doubt that for Clinton's inauguration ABC felt it needed to balance the news. Or for that matter, whenever there is some "big story" which they play endlessly. That they is consider there is any need to balance the news
