As others have already done, let’s put this Dowd error in context: It is not the first time she’s screwed up a quote in her column, and all of her screw-ups conveniently end up turning unremarkable statements into more outrageous ones.
"Please fire Maureen Dowd
or get her a fact-checker", Alex Pereene, Salon Magazine, August 22, 1013.

I know who it is. FR protocol is a post a CZJ pic on all articles that pertain to Maureen in any way. Dowd used to date Michael Douglas.

I attribute her mistake as still being a biotch over getting dumped for Catherine Zeta-Jones....

I remember one time during the Bush administration when Dowd intentionally used ellipsis to turn the President's statement into an absurdity. He said that the members of al Qaeda who had been killed or captured were no longer a problem. She removed the "killed or captured" part to make it appear that President Bush didn't think al Qaeda was a problem. Being a liberal nut case is one thing. Intentionally misquoting someone brings it to a higher level of journalistic dihonesty.
This is just a reminder to anyone talking to the press to have your own audio or video recording of the event. They will lie about what you have said and you will need proof of the truth.

Recording devices these days are small, convenient, and reliable. Any politician who talks to anybody in the scumbag Democrat "mainstream" newsrooms and doesn't self-record the conversation - - or at least make sure there are several friendly witnesses around - - is a moron who is unfit for office.

Fake but accurate. . .the classic Dan Rather/CBS News standard.
