As I was saying

Scroll or click down to my "Math-impaired" post. I state:

Those networks [CNN, ABC, CBS] are very partisan, very bad at math, or both.

I had reached that conclusion based on evidence on hand at the time. Now, the New York Times has an article that confirms the baser suspicion:

The critical moment came at 12:41 a.m. Wednesday, when, shortly after Florida had been painted red for Mr. Bush, Fox News declared that Ohio -- and, very likely, the presidency -- was in Republican hands. Howard Wolfson, a strategist, burst into the "boiler room" in Washington where the brain trust was huddled and said, "we have 30 seconds" to stop the other networks from following suit. The campaign's pollster, Mark Mellman, and the renowned organizer Michael Whouley quickly dialed ABC, CBS, CNN and NBC -- and all but the last refrained from calling the race through the night. Then Mr. Wolfson banged out a simple, two-line statement expressing confidence that Mr. Kerry would win Ohio once the remaining ballots were counted.

Got that? ABC, CBS, and CNN refrained from calling Ohio for Bush at the behest of the Democratic party. This is not a Brent Bozell hypothesis or a "vast right wing conspiracy" allegation; this is the Times. As I observed a week and a half ago in this post:

[O]ne thing this election will be remembered for is that the major established media news organizations finally and decisively chose to be partisan organs.

Quod erat demonstrandum.
