Reporter Quits NBC Citing Networks Support For Endless War
FTA:
January 4 is my last day at NBC News and Id like to say goodbye to my friends, hopefully not for good, begins an email titled My goodbye letter to NBC sent to various contacts by William M Arkin, an award-winning journalist who has been associated with the network for 30 years.
This isnt the first time Ive left NBC, but this time the parting is more bittersweet, the world and the state of journalism in tandem crisis, the email continues. My expertise, though seeming to be all the more central to the challenges and dangers we face, also seems to be less valued at the moment. And I find myself completely out of synch with the network, being neither a day-to-day reporter nor interested in the Trump circus.
The lengthy email covers details about Arkins relationship with NBC and its staff, his opinions about the mainstream medias refusal to adequately scrutinize and criticize the US war machines spectacular failures in the Middle East, how he argued endlessly with MSNBC about all things national security for years, the fact that his position as a civilian military analyst was unusual and peculiar in a media environment where that role is normally dominated by THE GENERALS and former government officials, and how he was one of the few to report that there werent any WMD in Iraq and remembers fondly presenting that conclusion to an incredulous NBC editorial board.
Arkin is no fan of Trump, calling him an ignorant and incompetent impostor, but describes his shock at NBCs reflexive opposition to the presidents bumbling intuitions to get along with Russia, to denuclearize North Korea, to get out of the Middle East, and his questioning of the US militarys involvement in Africa.
Im alarmed at how quick NBC is to mechanically argue the contrary, to be in favor of policies that just spell more conflict and more war. Really? We shouldnt get out Syria? We shouldnt go for the bold move of denuclearizing the Korean peninsula? Even on Russia, though we should be concerned about the brittleness of our democracy that it is so vulnerable to manipulation, do we really yearn for the Cold War? And dont even get me started with the FBI: What? We now lionize this historically destructive institution?
Dolly, thank YOU for all your hard work and dedication. You always find the loveliest graphics and pictures, and the information posted on your threads is invaluable.
Sad about your doggie; I understand about loss and pain, and the emptiness after they are gone.
Speaking of information, heres a person who appears to have an inside track:

Thanks , ma.
Congresswoman @RashidaTlaib is a real class act, isn’t she.
And the dims have the nerve to condemn Trump for his rough language but haven’t heard him spot that phrase.
The sad part is that many people will praise her words rather than denounce them.
Thank you Lucy- its been a rough couple months well maybe years . Lucy the pup is still hanging in but shes very ill
I thank you so much for your informative posts -post I really appreciate your research please stick around

You are welcome, Gran. Good morning.
Good morning, gub.
Went to bed early—big mistake for me. Was up from 12:30 am until 4 am.
Just missed your post, as I had to shut down the news/twitter to keep my sanity. Damn Democrats!
Anyhow, you can rest easy.
lysie has the kitchen locked up as tight as Fort Knox overnight.
LOL. Good morning.
Thanks for breakfast, lysie!
A rough overnight made better by your vittles in the morning!
You are welcome. Sorry about your night. I hate when that happens.
Good morning to everyone, except Nancy Pelosi and the House Democrats, who already proven to be enemies of the Republic on their first day.
We knew that, but is the rest of America paying attention, or is the media going to keep them brain dead another 2 years.
So sorry, Dolly.
Prayers and ((HUGS)) for you and Lucy.
