But politics talk show guests and this survey are based around fundamentally different concepts. While political guests are attempting to promote often-theoretical concepts of government policy, the mediamatters survey used a strict system to process the partisanship of media guests. This is often less than I can say for political guests.
"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)
"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)
