No, he added that when he started his blog. See his essay, "A Rivers Runs Truthout."
Seriesly, though, I think the "Rivers" is genuine, seeing as how his dad is named Charles Redding Smith. The appellation doesn't fall far from the tree.
He is still doing it (fabricating anonymous) sources. I asume you've read the allocation he made that supposedly President Bush said the constitution is just a goddamn paper. I looked everwhere for confirmation of the quote and could not find anything. The lunatics on the left buy his lies hook line and sinker
That explains the "Ty" threads.
BOUNCER FROM NEW ORLEANS
Tune: "City of New Orleans"
Writing 'bout a bouncer from New Orleans,
Plenty of Pitt--ain't no one I love more!
Pass the made-up facts in with the twaddle,
Full of Will's rambling speech galore.
Mid the grunts of barroom bouncers
And the sounds from here in Cheers,
Still my brilliance echoes through the rooms!
DUmmies with their minds asleep
Are buying all the crap I sweep--
This yarn's got the scent of certain barnyard fumes!
Good making DUmmieland my barroom!
Don't you know me, I'm so full of it!
I'm the guy who uses bouncers from New Orleans,
I'll be gone five hundred lines 'cause I'm Willie Pitt!
This sounds like a job for our Official Foliage Finder, Repub4bush, Tracer of Lost Foliage! Can you verify? Repeat: Can you verify?
I'm now wondering if Pitt told Ty that I was an extreme leftwinger trying to discredit a "mainstream Democrat" like Pitt. This seems to make sense, especially since he LIED about who he talked to on the phone in his post by portraying me as a disgruntled member of the DNC. Since Ty is supposedly a Bush supporter, that ploy would have worked better than telling Ty the truth.
Ty the Bouncer just had that stamped on his hand.
He's the Edgar Allen Poet of the Prog Blogs. See his essay, "The Pitt and the Ponderous."
Anybody with half a brain would understand Pitt is an opportunist. His short lived stint with the Kucinich campain showed his opportunistic characteristic when he switched his allegance when offered the chance.
He uses DU as his sounding board by posting articles draft articles and asking for feedback from them before he posts them on his website.
While I was googling his name looking for his interview with Dean (which I saw yesterday but can't find today) I came across some of the following Pitt poop. Wade through it at your own peril.
Here's a link to some of Pitt's earlier musings about such varied topics as Enron, Afghanistan, Ashcroft and other targets of his.

Take pictures next time!
I call that, "The Day the Dam Burst." Journalist Pitt had been Chief Shill for UndieCo . . . then he raised questions about the claims of Undie the Fundee . . . then he got beat up a bit by the Undielings . . . then he stuck his wet finger in the air and recanted and went back to Team Andy. But Will's wavering is what opened up the flood gates of doubt. And that of course is what killed Andy. WILL PITT KILLED ANDY. That graveyard rat.
"You rang?"
Doug Thompson just stopped posting at FR because Freepers actually verify stories & sources. He was exposed & had to apologize, but he learned nothing.....except not to post at FR.
"WILL PITT KILLED ANDY. That graveyard rat."
Is that an episode of 'Southpark'
"Pitt killed Andy...you b*st*rd"
Where'd pitt get that third leg with the red shoe?
Typo. Charles Redding PITT, of course.
Was that the secret CIA guy he knew for years only to have the guy disappear on him after FReepers figured out the guy was a fraud?
Answered my own question!
Ha! Ha!

After this thread, we may have to call him, "Pie-eyed Piper Pitt."
