I think that only FReepers seem to remember the firing of the US attorneys by the toon. I was amazed that Wallace would say they did not know about it until a viewer pointed it out. To me, that says they aren't much in the way of being 'real' journalists.
Wallace probably did not remember but I'd bet Brit Hume did.
Exactly. The first thing they started yelling was how this was an unprecedented action. "Unprecedented!!!" said many FReepers immediately, some having already recalled what Presidents Clinton and Clinton did. Now THAT was truly unprecedented, i.e., it had never been done before...wiping out the whole bunch. You would think that Wallace and others would at least put some minions to work finding out something about the history of firing fed prosecutors, but they just read and feed off of others in the DBM. How lazy. Or do they just pick up the action lines that they want to run with and simply don't care about the facts?
