The original notion of a partisan press was that it would create an atmosphere in which the truth would prevail in the marketplace of ideas. That may yet work; the Internet has, thankfully, provided an outlet for truth that has alarmed Fox News pundits and caused Rush Limbaugh to warn against liberal websites. But there must be no mistake - the fight is only beginning. It must be relentless, it must be patient, and it must be loud.
