I love the Internet. They would get away with these lies just a few short years ago. You and me both. Congratulations on a REAL job of reporting, and outing, the criminal lamestream mediots.
Another Freeper triumph.

Well done!
It's nice to see the good guys score a win in the media from time to time.
Anyone want to bet on when CBS will issue a correction?

Excellent work, ambrose!
I missed your expose, but it sounds like you found another favorite source, ala Greg Packer and Greg Thielmann? Very very good.

They then went on to discuss Ambrose's (they didn't credit him unfortunately)... It is becoming increasingly irritating that mainstream journalism sources cribbage material from FreeRepublic without attribution. In doing so, they are violating their own ethical standards. They need to be called on this, with formal complaints to their Editors and Ombudsmen.
The Washington Post Standards and Ethics
Author: The Washington Post
Published: February 16, 1999
Last Updated: February 17, 1999
A. Conflict of interest
B. The reporters role
C. Errors
D. Attribution of sources
E. Plagiarism and credit
The Washington Post is pledged to an aggressive, responsible and fair pursuit of the truth without fear of any special interest, and with favor to none
.
Washington Post reporters and editors are pledged to approach every assignment with the fairness of open minds and without prior judgment. The search for opposing views must be routine. Comment from persons accused or challenged in stories must be included. The motives of those who press their views upon us must routinely be examined, and it must be recognized that those motives can be noble or ignoble, obvious or ulterior....
D. Attribution of Sources
The Washington Post is pledged to disclose the source of all information when at all possible. When we agree to protect a sources identity, that identity will not be made known to anyone outside The Post.
Before any information is accepted without full attribution, reporters must make every reasonable effort to get it on the record. If that is not possible, reporters should consider seeking the information elsewhere. If that in turn is not possible, reporters should request an on-the-record reason for concealing the sources identity and should include the reason in the story.
In any case, some kind of identification is almost always possible by department or by position, for example and should be reported.
No pseudonyms are to be used.
E. Plagiarism and Credit
Attribution of material from other newspapers and other media must be total. Plagiarism is one of journalisms unforgivable sins. It is the policy of this newspaper to give credit to other publications that develop exclusive stories worthy of coverage by The Post.
