Subject: RE: BS: FoX News TKO's Obama..Shirley Sherrod Firing
Won't be long before FOX "accidentally" puts up a picture of Willie Horton instead of Obama... That's the problem that the media doesn't get... "The Story" has the most impact... The retractions get sugarcoated or buried... I was talkin' about the Washington Post and, yeah, they didn't go out of their way to lie but they ceratinly didn't do the hard journalistic work during the Bush/Cheney mad-dash-to-Iraq days... Seems everyday the Post (and other major newspapers) bought into the information that the war mongers wanted printed on Page One... Then after all the reasons for the war were debunked the Post printed a half-assed apology on page A-17 for "falling into a culture" and not doing the real job of "journalism"... "Falling into a culture"??? What does that exactly mean... So I wrote them and asked what steps they had taken to prevent them from "falling into a culture" again??? Stil awaiting an answer andf that
s going on 6 or 7 years now...
