O'Reilly didn't finish off his point--he started to ask her why she thought CBS took the blog attacks seriously, then she started off on a tangent and time started running out. Of course the reason CBS took it seriously was because the bloggers were RIGHT.
Put it another way--a bunch of left-wing blogs started this whole thing about the exit polls proving that last year's election was stolen. The mainstream press didn't go with it--because they knew the bloggers were wrong.
Spot on,if they were in a panic as she says it is because they knew it was a sham and they just got caught.
Exactly. Panic arose when they realized that this pile of lies they spent 5 years building was exposed and nuked. Panic comes when they know they have no confidence in the integrity of this nutcase's fanatical pursuit. If you have integrity and you're a big conglomerate like CBS, the first reaction would not be panic.
