Journalist looking for a scoop.
Some people have accused us of disrespecting the press. They are mistaken. The press is an important institution and we accord it all the respect that it deserves.
UPDATE: Such thoughtful fellows — So fair! So balanced! So measured and restrained! So devoted to the reporting of facts without sensationalizing anything! Feh.
UPDATE 2: Perhaps all our journalist friend needs is a good editor.

Is Rather talking about Reagan or the constant stream of bad news from Iraq out of his network? The irony is stifling.

Stork, swan, whatever, they’re still gangstas.
