Where Are Our Edward R Murrows and Fred Friendlys?

Ah, but we have them. They're just not on CNN, MSNBC or necessarily in the best papers read here.

Men like Robert Fisk telling it like it is in Iraq on Democracy Now the other morning...
Some of the initial reports out of NOLA where people let the government have it...
Seymour Hersh
And Helen Thomas still has a bigger set of cojones than 50 men in a White House press briefing
Even someone like George Clooney helping get the Edward R. Murrow vs. McCarthy movie, "Good Night and Good Luck" made.

There's a bit of Murrow in Olbermann.
