	Moyers, Bill
		Bill Moyers was one of the chief inheritors of the Edward R. Murrow tradition of "deep-think" journalism.

		Bill Moyers had by this time become one of the few broadcast journalists who might be said to approach the stature of Edward R. Murrow.

	[No title]
		Moyers personally green-lighted the notorious "daisy ad" that featured a little girl plucking daisy petals as a countdown leads to her vaporization in a nuclear blast, presumably that would happen if Goldwater were elected.
		But because PBS and Moyers' Democratic Party also have a large constituency of atheists, agnostics and secular humanists who ridicule all religious belief, "The Power of Myth" was painted on a Carl Jung-like canvas of psychology, sociology and anthropology echoing liberal multiculturalism.
		Moyers neglected to inform his audience of this conflict of interest involving an organization of which he was President and from which he personally pocketed $200,000 per year.

	Bill Moyers speaks his mind on Bush-brand environmental destruction and more \| By Amanda Griscom \| Grist \| Main Dish \| ...
		Bill Moyers is best known as the broadcast journalist who, for more than 20 years, has brought the public frank, soul-searching, and sometimes frightening examinations of -- well, of almost everything under the sun.
		Born in Oklahoma in 1934 and raised in Texas, Moyers has had a highly celebrated and peripatetic career that has included stints as a Baptist minister, deputy director of the Peace Corps in the Kennedy administration, and press secretary to President Johnson.
		Grist tracked Moyers down at his office to discuss environmental policy rollbacks, the ecological concerns that he says "burn in his consciousness," and the world he wants to leave for his grandchildren.

	The Salon Interview: Bill Moyers - Salon.com
		To say that Bill Moyers is an exceptional case among former White House press secretaries is almost to damn him with faint praise.
		Moyers is the intellectual's version of Barbara Walters -- or rather, Walters is the celebrity-struck populist's version of him.
		I think the secret to Bill Moyers' success is not merely his benevolent, avuncular manner but his gentle, almost singsong, folksy-yet-learned delivery (which he says he absorbed from the storytelling tradition of rural East Texas, where he was raised).

		The same veiled theme that runs through much of what Moyers has to say about America is also eerily present in the messages of IPA and rest of the interconnected leftist machine seeking to shape American public opinion.
		Moyers described it most succinctly in a speech to the left-wing Environmental Grantmakers Association, a radical anti-corporate environmental networking organization that operates from the office of the Rockefeller Family Fund.
		In a speech a year ago, Moyers bashed the Heritage Foundation for pressuring the Bush administration, on behalf of wealthy bankers, to halt the global campaign to freeze terrorists’ financial assets, a charge later proven to be little more than a figment of Moyers’ imagination.

	Bob Kohn's Media Watch: Fisking Bill Moyers -- Part I
		Moyers finally got around to Rush, who I don't suppose would be offended by the mafia reference which, coming from his followers, would be a symbol of affection.
		Before Bill Moyers starts throwing around accusations that Rush Limbaugh is at the head of a "virtual propaganda Army," he better be prepared to provide some examples of false statements of material facts that have not corrected when a correction was warranted.
		On the contrary, Bill Moyers is the one who gets the facts wrong, as we shall demonstrate as the show continues.

		You may have heard that Bill Moyers is retiring from three decades of TV journalism.

	Bill Moyers Gets In the Last Word (washingtonpost.com)
		Moyers represented reason, deliberation, serious questioning of the status quo and, especially, standing as firmly as possible against government encroachment into Americans' private lives.
		Moyers may not have helped his own image as something of a pontificator, however, by mentioning "Mein Kampf" in a cautionary note about the Pentagon's use of deception and disinformation against enemies, real or imagined, abroad.
		He told Moyers he was dumped for "refusing to toe the party line." The "documentary" was eventually cut into sections and passed off as news on the stations' newscasts.

	WILLisms.com: Bill Moyers Compares Self To Christ, Critics To Pharisees.
		Moyers' major thesis is that the "mainstream media" are "right-wing," a claim he bases on the alleged conservative corporate influence.
		What is so interesting is how Moyers has revived his position as left-wing hero in recent years, and over the past few weeks he has been elevated to martyr in the far left's unsuccessful (and thus increasingly bitter) ongoing fight against the Bush administration.
		One irony of Moyers' speech is that it was delivered just as the ubiquitous Newsweek fiasco was breaking, a fiasco which essentially renders his arguments, nearly all of them, at best, moot.

		For Bill Moyers, Grist, and the Minneapolis Star Tribune to allege that James Watt, as Secretary of the Interior, argued that "protecting natural resources was unimportant in light of the imminent return of Jesus Christ" is an outrageous libel.

	Bill Moyers for President? Absolutely!
		"Bill Moyers has been grappling with how to fit moral issues to political issues ever since he left Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and went to work for Lyndon Johnson in the teeth of the Vietnam War," she writes.
		I'm not suggesting that Bill Moyers -- with whom I've had the pleasure of working in recent years on media reform issues -- is a sure bet to win the Democratic nomination or the presidency in 2008.
		Moyers would enter the 2008 race with far more Washington political experience than Dwight Eisenhower had in 1952, far more national name recognition than Jimmy Carter had in 1976 and far more to offer the country than most of our recent chief executives.

	FrontPage magazine.com :: Adieu to Bill Moyers by Lowell Ponte
		Bill Moyers’ face henceforth will appear only irregularly on television, except during fundraising drives at PBS, but his puppeteer hand will continue to manipulate American politics from behind the scenes.
		But once again Bill Moyers was torn, this time between his left ideological kinship and relative editorial freedom at PBS, and his desire to make far more money than fledgling PBS in its early years was able to pay.
		Moyers’ “Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth” depicted the human sacrifice rituals and drug-induced visions of primitive tribal peoples as morally equivalent, or indeed superior, to Western Judeo-Christian faith and culture.

	Bill Moyers: Is God Green? -- Beliefnet.com
		In a December 2004 speech, Bill Moyers said that evangelical officials with end-times beliefs care more about the Rapture index than the fouling of the environment.
		Building off his 2004 speech, Moyers wrote this essay, in which he says: If you care about the fate of the planet, start worrying about fundamentalists eagerly awaiting the end of the world.
		Moyers got it wrong, argues the Rev. Jim Ball: Evangelical Christians know that caring for God's creation is a scriptural imperative.

	Bill Moyers discusses the spread of environmental concern among evangelicals \| By David Roberts \| Grist \| Main Dish \| ...
		Given that Bill Moyers is a hero of mine, whom I have admired for decades, and given that I am a Christian and a member of the Society of Biblical Literature and the American Academy of Religion, my first reaction was, "This is totally unfair, that David gets to do this interview, and not me!"
		Bill Moyers is doing what a responsible thinker should do: constantly re-examine his beliefs.
		But as for Bill Moyers and the Bible, I feel that that wrestling is very different, and is not a wrestling that I particularly respect.

		Bill Moyers is a broadcast journalist currently hosting the PBS program Now With Bill Moyers.
		They managed to cripple the bill Moss had drafted, and even then, only some last-minute calls to LBJ from a handful of newspaper editors overcame the president’s reluctance. He signed “the f------ thing,” as he called it, and then set out to claim credit for it.
