Good Employment Opportunity

(For Washed-Up TV Reporters)

You know, there is something that really bothers me about the recent blogger lead victories over main stream media journalists. In spite of the clear successes of the blogosphere in revealing conscious, factual, often time’s malicious inaccuracies in stories recounted by high profile, influential members of the traditional media outlets, there still isn’t any closure. The guilty parties have been allowed to quietly slip out the side door of public attention.

There are no public admissions of guilt and no apologies from the guilty parties. They are not sorry they attempted to spread lies, they are sorry that they got caught spreading lies. They are cowards, and their Main Stream Media peers allow them to get away without fully acknowledging the total scope of their transgressions. They are somehow made to appear as martyrs who are victims of circumstance.

Dan Rather was allowed to retire, six months in advance, while still propping his sullen scowl onto our TV screens each night. To this day he still has the audacity to say that he believes that the allegations he made against President Bush on behalf of CBS were true, even though the supporting documents have been totally discredited.

In my opinion, Dan Rather is a partisan hack and a liar.

And then there is Eason Jordan. You know, the scumbag that was running around the world making allegations that US troops were intentionally targeting journalists because they didn’t like the news coverage that they were getting. He tried to say that his comments were taken out of context, but bloggers found documentation of similar allegations dating back to 2002. Jordan resigned Friday.

I just did a Google search for Eason Jordan and found that the only one of the top ten links was to a main stream media outlet—CNN. Everything else was internet based Blog sites and The National Review Online which had a story dated Friday preceding Jordan’s resignation. The main stream media (ABC, CBS, NBC) are simply avoiding it. CNN is covering it because it has to—but they certainly wish the story would go away.

Well, I have some good news about an employment opportunity for Mr. Rather and Mr. Jordan. There seems to be a recent job opening in Somalia since the BBC reporter, Kate Peyton, was shot in the back and killed within hours of arriving in the country.

Hey Mr. Jordan, it’s not American troops that are targeting journalists, it’s TERORISTS!

You MORON…
