Siren wailing at Drudge!

New Rule: Network executives are not entitled to their own political point of view and, if he should violate that commandment, he must not ever express it privately to a colleague.

Are we privy to internal White House communications expressing how much Rove and Company dispise all media except the Washington Times and the Spectator?

[Feiny]

BWHAHAHA! Good one.

A friend of Green's at ABC says Green is mortified by the email. "John feels so badly about this email. He is a straight shooter and great producer who is always fair. That said, he deeply regrets the sentiment expressed in the email and the embarrassment it causes ABC News."

Right. The translation is "John feels so badly about this e-mail. He wants to be thought of as a straight shooter by the sheeple, and as a great producer by his bosses, and as someone who is always fair by both. That said, he deeply regrets that the sentiments were expressed in an e-mail that got published, and he truly, truly regrets the embarrassment that it has caused him."

That's true. Ironically, Lee Woodward was the one who called Melanie Bloom to tell her about David.

QUESTION!

Will John Green get the same treatment for his ADMITTED HATRED OF THE PRESIDENT that a St. Louis Disc Jockey got for a SLIP OF THE TONGUE for which he IMMEDIATELY APOLOGIZED?

Note: John Green, like the DJ, is also from St. Louis.

WOW...thanks for that link...great article.

I know of Halperin because for a while, he was a hotshot at the ABC radio station here in the Dallas/Ft.Worth area...

And, when his name came up about that memo...my ears really perked up.

[mewzilla]

He regrets getting caught.

[Recovering_Democrat]

I'm pretty sure John is the one on the left. Some surprise.

[Wristpin]

"I don't get the point of blacking out the name of the recipient. Green will know who leaked the email, since it's obvious that there was only one recipient. I'm sure Green has told a bunch of other people who the leaker is. The leaker is toast at ABC (assuming that's where the leaker works)."

Leaker?!! This person is a courageous WHISTLEBLOWER!!!!!

Mr Green needs to resign as it is proven that he cannot produce a fair and impartial newcast.

see post 69. bigger pic.

Sept. 30, 2004 was the first Kerry-Bush debate. I'll poke around for an October 1 transcript, it would interesting to see what the show was like.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

John Green, exec producer of "Good Morning America"? Jeeez, one would never get a hint of his anti-Bush bias by watching the show. </ weapons grade sarcasm>

[Recovering_Democrat]

sorry. I mean post 100.

[eureka!]

Re#89 I love it too. Drudge scored on this one...

[freekitty]

One of this guy's friends said he is mortified by hi e-mail and that he is a straight shooter. Yeah right, he's scared silly to lose his job and straight shooter, he ain't by a long shot. More of a coward of the party type. And this is just another thing to bring controversy. I'll bet this is a set-up. It's happened too many times. They probably did this themselves.

[demkicker]

No kidding... I hope Drudge has the goods on others at other networks too. Next, watch the demwits start demanding an investigation on how Drudge got these emails!

[mewzilla]

I wonder if ABC's legal eagles aren't all over Drudge like flies on manure trying to get the rest of those e-mails back.

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Looks like a Lib to me.
