The score, by composer Jerry Goldsmith, has been used ...

Karl Rove Documents Bush's Farewell, MSM Absent
NewsBusters.org - Exposing Liberal Media Bias — In addition to his regular pundit responsibilities at Fox News and sometime column in the Wall Street Journal, Karl Rove has taken it upon himself to do the job of the MSM--reporting the news.
