As far as I'm concerned, all these people should -at the very least- lose their jobs. This list went way beyond political advocacy, and truly may have thrown the election for Obama through their combined and intentionally biased media barrage.... at hundreds, literally hundreds, of prestigious (and not-so-prestigious) outlets.
Tell you what I really think? These people treacherously undermined our democratic process, and it's hard for me to believe it was legal.
If there's a lawyer in the house, I'm curious: Doesn't this conspiracy in many cases constitute "honest services fraud"? And as such, couldn't some of these individuals conceivably be prosecuted under the "Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act" (RICO)?
