Perhaps us bloggers can do more than just the MSM.
Join The Fight!

Somehow Al Pacino in "The Scent of a Woman" just came to mind- Were JUST GETTING STARTED!! All liberal lying media scum watch out- the bloggers are watching your a**!

Later that evening, she posted a response from Mr. Jordan, who wrote that on the panel he had been meant to say that when journalists are aimed at and shot, as opposed to being killed by wayward bombs, "such a killing is a tragic case of mistaken identity, not a case of 'collateral damage.' "

So he's staying with U.S.military kills are deliberate, and Iraq terrorists kills accidental.

bloggers exposed flaws in a report by Dan Rather
======================================================

Sugarcoated with so much sugar that I puke. It wasn't a flaw. It was a deliberate hit piece with phony documents used in an attempt to affect a presidential election.

[Anti-Bubba182]

"..Ms. Robinson of CNN said that the network had no transcript of the session or a videotape because the conference organizers said that they considered the session off the record. She said that the content of Mr. Jordan's remarks was not in dispute, but that assertion has not satisfied those critics on the Internet who contend Mr. Jordan and CNN have something to hide..."

All you need to know.

Not even crocodile tears for this one or any of the others. Remember what was done to Trent Lott. They wait for people to make mistake, then pounce, and are angered when the same attack is unleashed on them.

"With the resignation Friday of a top news executive from CNN, bloggers have laid claim to a prominent media career for the second time in five months."

Laughing Out Loud!

[Enterprise]

Oh Lord. There is so much in this article, that Free Republic can chew on it for a month. I'll start with just a little piece:

"that he believed the United States military had aimed at journalists and killed 12 of them."

Even Eason Jordan would have had enough terminology smarts to allege that the United States military TARGETED journalists and killed 12 of them.

Mr. Jarvis said bloggers should keep their real target in mind. "I wish our goal were not taking off heads but digging up truth," he cautioned.

Blogger's remorse? or just jealous he didn't get a bigger piece of the action?

[Blue_Ridge_Mtn_Geek]

At the moment, there are so many arrogant, careless, agenda-driven "journalistic professionals" wandering around in MSM-land that it's a target rich environment for observant fact-checking bloggers.

Since MSM editors and producers have been falling down on the job, they have no one to blame but themselves when bloggers whittle their shoddy subordinates or shoddy selves down to size and, in some cases, drive them off the field.

So, "media professionals", that idea of accountability that you've made so much hay from applying to politicians, physicians, business executives, and others not in the chattering class? Now it applies to YOU too. Get used to it, or find another line of work.

The title is suggestive of another creative use for Photoshop... ;-)

At the same time, some in the traditional media are growing alarmed as they watch careers being destroyed by what they see as the growing power of rampant, unedited dialogue.

As opposed to those in the MSM trying to destroy careers with rampant edited dialogue.

"If you're going to do this open-source journalism, it should have a higher purpose," he said. "At times it did seem like an angry mob, and an angry mob using high technology, that's not good."

I'm sure to the British redcoats at Saratoga, the American militiamen looked like a mob. So I wonder how the MSM feels to be in the same position as that of the redcoats. But instead of being sniped at by rifle-wielding farmers who were deadly shots, the MSM is being sniped out by keyboard wielding citizens who are unrelenting in their demand for the truth.

[WorkingClassFilth]

"Steve Lovelady, a...managing editor of CJR Daily, the Web site of The Columbia Journalism Review, has been among the most outspoken. "The salivating morons who make up the lynch mob prevail," he lamented online after Mr. Jordan's resignation."

Oh, well, say no more. Know what I mean? Lovelady...Journalism...Columbia. Wink, wink. Nudge, nudge. Ri-i-i-ight.

[shellshocked]

The media wouldn't be game if they weren't running wild.

Rampant, unedited dialogue!!?? I guess this is their way of bemoaning that the fact that via "ampant, unedited dialogue" their "SPIKED" stories are still finding their way to the public.

Hehehehe. Chickens coming home to roost for Old Media, I see. Of course, it never occurs to them to simply report the straight news.

[With the resignation Friday of a top news executive from CNN, bloggers have laid claim to a prominent media career for the second time in five months.]

This wouldn't be happening if these "news" folks stuck to reporting the news in an unbiased manner.

[In September, conservative bloggers exposed flaws in a report by Dan Rather;]

Flaws? As in the entire report was based upon fraudulent documents in a blatant attempt to affect a US presidential election? This is about far more than "flawed reporting".

The MSM still doesn't get it. Yet they are still "trapped in the tar pits of history", roaring and bellowing, yet sinking inexorably to their doom.

"Have we entered an era where our lives can be destroyed by a pack of wolves"

Ask TalonNews, they know the answer to that one.

[JPJones]

...they see as the growing power of rampant, unedited dialogue.

God help the USA, we can't have that! LOL!

"The salivating morons who make up the lynch mob prevail,"

Better than the salivating anachronistic criminal elite! LOL!

Notice FR is never mentioned in these type of articles...lol!
