Hey I read that book, It didn't start with Watergate, by Lasko I think it was. Most excellent book, I'm sure out of print now, showed how FDR, JFK and LBJ were all in the dirty tricks business bigtime but they add the press and the congress on their side so no worries for them!

Another interesting point - LBJ's spin-meisters were Moyers and Jack Valenti. Didn't Jack Valenti also recently step down from his motion pictures mouthpiece gig?

Doesn't he have a son that's got his hand in the same PBS cookie jar?

Moyer's wife is the head of his "foundation", collecting big bucks.

I believe that his son is the "brains" behind tompaine.com.

Liberal garbage, all of them.

What "right-wing media"?? There isn't any! FOXnews is middle of the road, and the lefties hate it with a passion for not being in their pockets like the rest of the alphabet "news" media.

Also, I didn't see any mention of moyer's drunk-driving bust in this puff piece.

Mr. good for nothing slimebag leftist calls it quits.


Hooray!

Literally no one was watching his leftist garbage and that's the real reason he is leaving TV. His ratings were in the toilet, just like his politics.

Buh-bye, Crapweasle.

Good riddance!
