There is no bias at the Globe. They support my husband. Anyone who disagrees with my husband is an IDIOT and a SCUMBAG
/sarcasm off
I do not agree with readers who say the Globe should have held off writing about the CBS broadcast until it made its own verification. The Globe had no reason at that point to doubt the network's judgment"
Actually, the Globe reported the Story on page A1 on Sept.8th--BEFORE the CBS 60 Minutes report. She's lying!
( Boston Globe Archives, 2004-09-10 )
THE GLOBE SPOTLIGHT TEAM HAS SCORED ANOTHER BULL'S-EYE WITH ITS REPORT ON GEORGE W. BUSH'S VIOLATION OF HIS CONTRACT WITH THE GOVERNMENT FOR SERVICE IN THE AIR NATIONAL GUARD, AND HIS STAFF'S SUBSEQUENT EGREGIOUS DENIAL AND MISREPRESENTATION OF THE FACTS (PAGE A1, SEPT. 8).
1.What did the Spotlight team know--and when did they know it?
2.Who gave them the information?
3.Why did the Boston Globe rely on the same expert as the NYT, Colonel Gerald Lechliter (ret.), as the source for an analysis of the Air National Guard service record? Who is Col. Lechliter? Did he contact the Globe? Shouldn't his background be a matter of public record under the Society of Professional Journalists Code of Ethics?
Wasn't this a case of the Kerry campaign coordinating an attack with the NYT, Globe and CBS on Bush's Air National Guard Service on the same day?
Thank you for the post.
MSM lies and spins - 24/7.
" The Globe had no reason at that point to doubt the network's judgment. "
What about at this point? LOL
It's just more spinning.
This is not an apoloy at all!
What is not shown is the opening paragraph of the article where the writer REPEATS THE UNPROVEN ACCUSATIONS AGAINST BUSH.
