“and I do care what happens to her.”
So what?,,i’m sure Cain is important to his loved ones and they care what happens to him too. Look up “gonzo journalism” on the google. It’s where the reporter is PART of the story.
She involved herself by vouching for the credibility of a non credible person,,, so she should suffer full scrutiny. What is the personal angle for her? Fame, money, politics, access to a single guy and a pool? We may never know,, so we judge brutally by accuracy.
And as an information consumer,, how do i know this isn’t another “error in judgement”?
She deserves every bit of the suspicion as to actions and motives as Cain is enduring. Thats where sympathy should properly lie. She jumped on the Bialek snowball with no proof,, so she’s either reckless or malicious. In either case,, she should face the blowtorch. It’s a Dan Rather thing.
Well, I happen to also be a Cain SUPPORTER, and I DON’T agree with her opinion on this, frankly. I care a great deal about what happens to Cain as I WANT him to be the next President and fix all this crap. I don’t believe these accusations at this point - AT ALL.
What I was trying to express is that I care about her as a person I know, and I don’t know about you, but when a friend of mine makes what I consider to be a bad judgement call I worry about how it will affect them personally. THAT’S ALL - and I mentioned it because I AM biased when it comes to how I think and feel about Amy, so I won’t be ABLE to think about her part in all of this completely objectively. I fully recognize I’m not the “average audience member” in regards to this story now. I was only trying to be honest about that.
I have repeatedly stated on this thread that I don’t think she should have gone any further than to state what she witnessed personally in re: to the interaction between Bialek, and Cain. Her opinion as to this woman’s credibility shouldn’t have been offered, IMO.
I don’t think this rises to the level of Dan Rather, however. Your opinion may be different. Obviously you think she is involved in these accusations since she has stated she believes Sharon and that she doesn’t see anything to indicate she’s lying — I am willing to give Amy the benefit of the doubt that she didn’t know all the dirt that was dug up on this woman in the last 24 hours which is why I think it was a bad idea for her to include her judgement on the Beck show.
Again, this is all just my opinion. Yours may differ. We’re coming from two different places on this.
Frankly, I’m done talking about this for now at least - I’ve said enough already, so please don’t take it personally if I don’t respond right away to your response on this post (if any).
