Kathleen Parker

Capitalism, the ogre of those protesting Wall Street, has suffered a public relations crisis in the wake of the global economic collapse. But any remedy to the systemic corruption that led to the collapse should not displace recognition that capitalism creates wealth.

When you control all the largest media outlets, it’s time to stop grousing about liberal media bias.
