From the original Doublespeak

\"Am I convinced that what we did in this fight was viable? I tell you from the bottom of my heart: We stopped Saddam Hussein in his WMD programs,\" he said, using the abbreviation for weapons of mass destruction. \"Do I know where they are? I wish I did . . . but we will find them. Or not. I don't know. I'm being honest here.\"

Consider the lapses in the NY Times credibility recently. Miller is the journalist\r\nwho recently claimed to have an excliusive on revelations of possible Iraqi bioweapons and \r\nWMDs, but it turned out that all of her info was coming from military and Pentagon personnel\r\nwho basically handed her the information without any corroboration. The Times has also \r\nbeen tarnished by the even more recent Blair scandal, where an African American journalist on the \r\nstaff admitted he doctored news stories under pressure from higher ups. Critics have tried \r\nto dismiss this as merely the consequences of using "Affirmative Action" in hiring practices at the Times.\r\nBut, as a recent Counterpunch.Org article conveys, the journalist in question was not hired under\r\nAffirmative Action, but rather because his conservative views were conducive to those who hired him \r\n(like the ethnic tokens in Bush's cabinet).\r\n\r\nThe Times and the Post are being pushed into a war of credibility, which just goes to show how \r\nfucked up American corporate journalism is after the embedded excesses of the invasion of Iraq.\r\n\r\nAlthough the Times still has some credible journalists, many of which have been silenced, I'd put\r\nmy money on the Post. The Times is being manipulated and not admitting to it.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n","author":"mediawatcher","parent_id":57344,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-05-14 19:45:14","modified":"2003-05-14 19:45:14","fileurl":""}]}
