Someone convinced LA Times not to describe Vanderboegh as a Fox News "commentator"
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/nationnow/2011/11/georgia_militia_novel.html

Georgia terror suspects allegedly inspired by online novel
November 3, 2011 | 6:44 am

This post has been corrected. Please see note at bottom for details.

Federal officials say that the four Georgia militia members who were arrested this week for allegedly plotting a violent terror attack were inspired by a novel their ringleader read on the Internet.

Now attention is turning to the author of that novel, Mike Vanderboegh, a blogger and former militia member from Pinson, Ala., who is no stranger to controversy.

{For the Record, 10:56 a.m., Nov. 3: An earlier version of this post misidentified Mike Vanderboegh as a Fox News "commentator." Vanderboegh has been interviewed for Fox News stories, but is not affiliated with the news network.}

-----------------------------

Wonder who would do that?

4. There are known knowns
known unknowns and unknown unknowns.

I think this is an unknown known.

5. Ah, what a relief.
DU has been sadly lacking in insufflations of empty rhetoric lately.

2. Honor among thieves
If a so-called 'liberal media' existed, FAUX 'News' would have been drawn & quartered on a daily basis. For the most part, the corporate media just ignore each other's shortcomings, atrocities & peccadilloes.

3. He's not a commentator, he's just been asked to comment frequently on issues for money.
Nothing to see here.
