(90,423 posts)dick cheney did, stove-piping the unvetted dirt from ahmed chalabi to both judith miller at the New York Times, and to "Meet the Press" - "look, the 'New York Times' had something about it this morning, and it just reinforces our suspicions..." SHIT!!!! He had it fucking FED to her HIMSELF! And she dutifully put it on the front page above the fold in the Sunday morning "New York Times" which he then could conveniently point to, while guesting on the fawning tim russert's widely viewed and respected NBC News Sunday morning showcase. Which then made it "true." And she gets all kinds of people bowing and scraping to her for being this intrepid reporter with great sources and UBER-scoops, so her ego's stroked but good, and she rises to the top of the "journalism" ziggurat, and cheney gets his case for war. Slam, and dunk.
So now we have the latter day version by lindsey baby, and his little pet lara.
GOOD LORD!!!
