“You need the structure of verified news before it reaches your little ears.”
Verified? The mainstream media? That is the perfect example of an oxymoron.

"He said when you have all kinds of unqualified people sending information anonymously you don’t know who to believe. You need the structure of verified news before it reaches your little ears." Oh, we're much better off listening to qualified, unbiased, professional news people like Dan Rather, Katie Couric, Steffie Stephanopoulos, Chris Matthews, etc................

That’s what surprised me, too. It seems everything in his life leads back to Watergate or his leak to the Village Voice. He usually does not miss the opportunity to bring them up since he’s never moved on. Nothing new to see/hear here.

"He said when you have all kinds of unqualified people sending information anonymously you don’t know who to believe." As if they themselvs don't use "anonymous sources".
