Did you see Aaron Brown get mad at Arianna for exposing Judy Miller

[goodboy]

for the Bush* lapdog she is?

Aaron Brown said that most of Judy's critics are on the Left, and their attacks are essentially unfounded and politically motivated.

The reason? Because of the perception that Judy's reporting was "friendly to the administration" and that the Left would never demand a reporter to reveal their source if it weren't politically helpful to them.

Arianna smacked him with the truth, "Judy's says she couldn't recall who the source was, so she's saying she is protecting a source she can't remember???"

SNAP!

But here's the thing: SHE WAS ALREADY RELEASED FROM HER OBLIGATION TO PROTECT HER SOURCE! THE WHITE HOUSE MADE EVERYONE SIGN A WAIVER! EVEN LIBBY SAYS HE CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHY SHE WENT TO JAIL!!!

Aaron, I think you need a nice lie down.

[tuvor]

1. I'd love to know what Judy's awkward lie conceals.

But the liberal media doesn't want to investigate the elephant in that room.

[knowbody0]

3. one thing for sure

she's paid for.

[knowbody0]

2. i watched

shame on Aaron. soon he will be saying mea culpa

[Hissyspit]

4. I've never been impressed by his emotion-based reporting

passing as analysis. He was not critical enough in his coverage of the run-up to war, and so what if here critics are all on the left? That doesn't make them wrong.

He is having the knee-jerk 'nobility-of-reporters' reaction, not taking into account that she is 1) hardly a real reporter, and 2) is probably guilty of corruption of basic levels of integrity standards in journalism.

7. Yes, knee jerk, exactly.

What you said. Judith doesn't fit the bill of journalism. She's a member of WHIG.

[Inland]

5. Poor press people. So deluded.

They hate knowing that they've been duped. They are protecting Judy as if she were a reporter and a journalist and not just an arm of the WHIG at the NYT.

Brown had better wake up.

[autorank]

6. Brown's afraid his gig is up.

That's right, he's been whoring since the Iraq war. Now, he sees Judy get what she deserves and wonders, "Wow, what if they find out I'm a mediawhore too?" That's what this is about.

[glitch]

11. Just what I was thinking.

Autorank, get out of my mind!

[autorank]

16. Well, I'm out of my own mind! I'm now channeling Wu Tang. How is it?

:evilgrin:

[Catherine Vincent]

8. I think Aaron is sweet on her or something.

[Tatiana]

15. Lots of males seem to be "sweet" on her. What gives? n/t

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

9. I see Brown isn't addressing the facts again

It's very easy to dismiss criticism by merely pointing to its source and suggesting a political motivation. How about actually addressing the points of criticism?

[jasmeel]

10. I was sooo pissed when I saw that! Go liberal media!

[HootieMcBoob]

12. this is a crisis for journalism

isn't that what andrea mitchell said? even though she managed to fuck up and spout the right wing talking point about wilson saying he was sent to niger by cheney. they are totally fucked and hopefully this will expose how they have been dancing with the criminals for years so that we can get a real independent press.

[daleo]

13. I saw that.

It was one of those times you think "of course, a five year old can see it when it's put that way". Brown looked discombobulated for a while. It was priceless.

[goodboy]

14. and Arianna spanked him at every turn without missing a beat! (tn)

[Neil Lisst]

17. How does Aaron Brown have any viewers?

He reminds me of that guy in the commericial who doesn't get sent to the conference because he answers every question with a question.

Really?

I do?

18. Aaron Brown defending Miller's brand of "journalism????"

I don't care if it was a Repub or Dem administration lying us into war (anyone remember Lyndon Johnson and the Tonkin Gulf?) they should be held accountable. AND also the "journalists" who abandon ethics, any regard for facts and truth, who enable them by shoveling out their LIES to the American public. Since when are journalists supposed to be "friendly" to any administration and promulgate their agenda based on LIES?

IT'S NOT A "LEFT" OR "RIGHT" ISSUE, AARON!

Good thing I no longer bother to watch. It's been downhill since he dumped the accordion guy.
