Dateline LaLaLand (cBS) November 8: Mary Mapes to receive the coveted Colin Ferguson Long Island Railroad Killer Denial Award, a gleaming oversize chromium replica of O.J. Simpson in a golf cart vowing to find Nicole and Ron's real killer.

LOL, your imagination runs wild! I usually reread your posts a couple of times to digest what you are saying.

This afternoon, I caught a little of Sean Hannity and the author of "Bias". He really whacked her re her denial of doing no wrong. He said she had a year to either prove that we were wrong or to admit she was wrong. She is still as he noted blaming everybody for her actions, we call them lies.

She is still totally delusional, GD. She spent six years chasing a store that meant nothing. She could have gone after a real story -- like Kerry being present in Kansas City when the VVAW voted on whether to assassinate U.S. Senators who supported the Vietnam War. That might have been a mildly interesting piece.

MEMORIALIZED IN SONG

I have Bernard Goldberg, Bias: A CBS Insider Exposes How the Media Distort the News, Regnery, 2002. I have great respect for Bernie's courage in opposing the Niagara of crap spewing from the networks' news ministries.

I also have 60 Minutes of Deception, a 68-minute video exposing Mike Wallace's 60 Minutes hatchet job on Chris Ruddy following his 1997 The Strange Death of Vincent Foster, Free Press Div. Simon & Schuster. Wallace used 300-400 edits to reduce three days of interview to a skewed stew wherein Ruddy isn't allowed to finish a sentence.

Bernie was nice to Mapes--way nicer than she deserves. Her philosophy is uber-Goebbels--

It is Orwellian newthink wherein the black coveralled Big Brother shock troops are incapable of seeing any argument contrary to dogma.

This is The New Soviet Man--and represents the MoveOn.org-Michael Moore Kool-Aid drinkers.

Excellent summation about Mapes and a great DFU song!

You have captured the feeling of most of us who really know the real Mapes:

"There is no return for a socialist crook pyschopathic liar megalomaniac minor league propagandist like Mary Mapes."

Actually, your "photo" is nice compared to what she looked like yesterday in the GMA interview yesterday.

She is a poster girl for Lunatic Libs. She has had a year to prove that we were wrong or to apologize and do a real story on this mess.

Instead, she is saying amd doing the same things that got her fired. That is a test of insanity, and she failed.

Yea I heard a bit of this on Rush...her 'We don't have to prove the doc. authentic ;they have to prove the doc. not authentic" defense was just off the wall...even the interviewer was incredulous at that statement

Beside the fact the doc. have been basically been proved as false; If we accept her "We don't have to prove any doc. authentic" then any one can just whip up anything on the old word processor and present it...

She completely in the Michal Moore school of "journalism", just crap giant piles of Bull Shit and call it fact.

What is so funny is when we bring attention to their piles of B$, they try to blame us, rather admit that they lied and got caught.

Mary Mapes has gone over the deep end I think. She was on with Larry King last night giving her spiel, followed by 3 or 4 people refuting her.

Today she was on with Wolf Blitzer doing the same thing!
