I'm Glad Jon Ralston Was Never A Teacher

The comedy writing of Jon Ralston, superstar journalist of the Las Vegas Sun, who admits he throws softballs to Democrats and liberals comes out with another anti-conservative rant.
Ralston, for a few years at least grades political advertisements. It used to be that he would just grade the content but now that his sleeping buddy, Harry Reid is in trouble, he has decided all previous rules are out.
He grades the latest Sharron Angle advertisement:



It actually is a powerful message and it will be very effective.
But, here is what John has to say about the final message: The only real question related to this spot is raised by the last line: “Help is on the way.”

Really? I don’t think we have heard from Angle what form that help might take. And how can help be on the way if this is Angle’s position on U.S. senators and jobs: “As your U.S. senator I am not in the business of creating jobs.”
He then continues to cry like a little girl about how Sharron Angle and then knocks her grade down.
I'm a teacher and if a student turned in an excellent project but if I didn't like the student and downgraded them for disliking them, I would be in trouble and rightly so. But because Ralston is a clown with no journalistic ethics to speak of, he'll get away with it. But I just wonder, other than his sheeple, how many people actually believe what he writes?
