The leaker is toast at ABC
they'll blame it on peter jennings or bill beutel.
I'm thinking the leaker is a retired conservative newsie. And if he didn't retire yet, he will have to very soon!
When I worked (briefly) in a small newsroom everyone just assumed I was a liberal. They couldn't imagine that anyone disagreed with them.
I still remember them loudly cheering on Election Night '92 every time Clinton won a state. One girl came up to me and said, "wow, looks like Clinton is going to win." I replied with, "I hope not, but it looks that way." She looked at me shocked and said, "Wow, you support Bush?!" When I said yes, she sheepishly told me, "I do too, but I'm too afraid to let anyone here know."
