Blogger Jimmie Bise reports that Mark Knoller of CBS News sent this Twitter message, using a derogatory gay-sex term to refer to tens of thousands of protesters in Washington today:
Obama’s motorcade arrives at Capitol Hill. Boos and jeers passing tea bagger protests.
Liberals have a monopoly on “civility,” you know.
UPDATE: Matthew Balan at Newsbusters notes that the same slur has been used by Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews of MSNBC, and by Monica Crowley and Anderson Cooper of CNN.
