Wolf Blitzer's resume

[burythehatchet]

His career in journalism began in 1972, in the Tel Aviv bureau of the Reuters news agency. He soon moved to Washington, D.C., where he was White House correspondent for The Jerusalem Post after a spell working for AIPAC. In 1990 he was hired by CNN as a military affairs reporter. His team's coverage of the first Gulf War in Kuwait won a CableACE Award and made him a household name. He became CNN's White House correspondent and later co-anchored the daily show The World Today. His coverage of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing earned him an Emmy Award. In 1997, he began hosting the CNN interview programs Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer, and in 2000 Wolf Blitzer Reports.

8. He was a reporter for Robertson's "700 Club" ...here's a link.....

From YURICA REPORT

...It’s scary to hear someone carry-on like Pat. But it’s sort of strange to realize that Pat and Wolf Blitzer go way back together. Yep! Wolf used to work for Pat Robertson's CBN way back when Pat was setting up his news bureau and Wolf was the 700 Club’s reporter from the Middle East. He was a lot younger in those days, but in those beginning days Pat exposed Wolf Blitzer to a viewing audience that topped the Nielsen ratings at 28.7 million monthly viewers! That’s a great way to launch one’s career. But Wolf Blitzer likes to keep that part of his career kind of quiet. He doesn’t list the 700 Club’s news bureau in his biography. He doesn’t tell CNN’s audience that Pat was like an angel to him when he was just an independent reporter starting out. But those of us who watched Pat’s show could never forget Wolf Blitzer’s reports. He was presented to us as such an expert—we were just so proud of him! And look how high he’s gone. You’d think he’d give Pat a little credit. No doubt he says “Thanks” by inviting him on CNN!



After all, Pat started a J-School (Journalism School) and Bob Slosser, who had worked for the New York Times became the President of CBN University and Bob Slosser shared Pat’s vision of a new America. Slosser was at the graduation of the first graduate from the Institute of Journalism, it was a young lady named Eliza Wright. And the Governor of Missouri, a fellow named John Ashcroft gave the graduation speech on May 20, 1985! (My how these folks go way back together—and it shows what loyalty can do!) Bob Slosser told the 700 Club audience that day:

“We’re going to change the way the country thinks, we’ve bought into this secularism thing and that’s taken us right down the wrong path. I believe that this institution and those like this…will change the way this country thinks!”

I guess Wolf Blitzer is doing his best to help Americans change the way we think—even about assassination! Shame on you Wolf! I can see why you would be reluctant to give credit to Pat for helping to launch your career. And it does explain why you don’t mention it, but really—don’t you think murdering people is immoral—or is that part of how you always wanted to change America too?

4. My, my, my....

"after a spell working for AIPAC". And the dots connect. His coverage is a continuation of his work for AIPAC, in reality, imo, he has never stopped working for them.

7. His real name's Leslie.

Wonder why he calls himself 'Wolf'?? Because 'Pussy' was taken?

9. During GW I, Blitzer was in Baghdad commenting from under a desk

While Bernard Shaw was standing at the window like a real journalist would.

I kid you not, Blitzer's commentary was filled with the unmistakable quiver of fear in his voice. Shawe sounded professional. Both were kept in the Hotel w/other Journalists by the Iraqi Gov't, but Shaw had a spine...:)
