I like the part about "no journalism experience." That's like saying, "she couldn't being having sex for money because she has no hooker experience."

intelligence=intelligent

I've laughed so hard reading this I nearly hurt myself. David Brock has less credibility than, say, Bill Clinton.

[blackbart1]

AND Mr. Brock...are you a partisan operative? It would seem that you and 90% oftoday's reporters are very partisan and most of us know it.

[Peach]

I thought you might enjoy reading this.

[Miss Marple]

Thanks. I am sure that the White House will really be concerned about Mr. Brock's opinion. (Snicker.)

[Bonaparte]

A friend of mine held a job as a reporter for years with nothing but a BA in psych. He's now a lawyer and tells me that no particular background or training is required to be a reporter. According to him, Brock does not know what he's talking about.

[agincourt1415]

Oh, Puleeeeze, he uses the word partisan, like what is Helen Thomas.

Revoke Helen's Press Pass!

"the use of poetic imagery that links Brock, cock and sock in the same poem justifies the immediate cancelation of your Freeper Poetry license."

sniff, sniff - Waaaaaaaaaaaagh!

[TOUGH STOUGH]

"Mr. Gannon frequently asks "softballs" during White House press briefings"

Something the MSM has only been doing to Democrat presidents and politicians for the past thirty to forty years. They sure don't like it when the shoe is on the other foot. How disingenuous to cry foul when Republicans use similar tactics.

When you go after the MSM and the Democrats for such things, then MAYBE you'll have some credibility. Until then, buzz off!

[Wissa]

like Helen Thomas.........she ceased being a real jouranlist sometime around the Nixon Admin..........

I would have guessed that it was closer to the presidency of McKinley.

[Dan from Michigan]

I got two words for David Brock. Helen Thomas. Now sit down and shut up you no talent assclown.

[rwfromkansas]

Well, give this e-mail a work. I won't guarantee it will work.

Journalism is not a field with a license or something.

If you can get hired, you get hired. Usually you must have past experience, but you have to start somewhere without experience obviously.

[Bob J]

Dan, we're going to miss you at CAPC...heheh.

[The Shrew]

Well, Juan Williams of NPR and Fox News resident leftist, just asserted on Bill O'Reilley that he "was on this show as a journalist" while he went down the democrat talking points list. The Left's hypocrisy knows no bounds.

Somebody PING Rush.

[cpdiii]

like Helen Thomas.........she ceased being a real journalist sometime around the Nixon Admin..........

You had the correct concept but wrong administration. The correct administration when she ceased being a real journalist was Roosevelt. Theodore Roosevelt, not Franklin. :)

[Lancey Howard]

I presume, then, that Brock would likewise want to bar news organizations which are dominated by Democrat activists. The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN and the TV networks for example.

[McGavin999]

ROTFLMCO! As if the rest of the MSM aren't activists. This is absolutely priceless.
