If you harrass AP based upon the activities of the husband of a reporter, you're just going to make AP dig in more, because it just isn't rational to hold one spouse responsible for the political activities of another.

I agree that we are not in the business of "harassment." That is not what we do, but what the other side engages in.

However, AP must and will feel the sting of rebuke for their unprofessional actions. The AP was forced to retract the "Crowd Booed Clinton's Illness and Bush Did Nothing!" fabrication.

To point out the conflict of interest is not harassing the AP. In today's atmosphere (given the fallout of CBS's abominable behavior) this is an especially valid concern.

Let them dig in. It's ok by me.

I don't think the AP retracted that article: (Bush Crowd Boo'ed Clinton's Heart Attack) ...

Last I heard the AP writer who lied stood by his article and his words, although other press members said it did not happen.

The AP writer who falsely wrote about the 5-tour former Navy SEAL vet who was criticizing Pres Bush's national guard service DID retract that part of his story.
