Bill Press Beats Up On Whorie Kurtz

[KharmaTrain]

Finally, someone says to the corporate media puppets that they're not wearing any clothes.

Press tells Kurtz..."Let's call him by his REAL name"...and shame on the Beltway press elite for knowing this guy was a phony and letting him operate.

Kurtz looks like Bambi in the headlights.

1. Was this on Howies "Unreliable Sources" media show on CNN?

He actually had Bill Press on? I hope Howie's days of "shining the spotlight on the media" are going to be cancelled. His Media reporting is laughable and he's a joke. Even "Buzzflash" editorialed this week about how he should be fired from both jobs..

4. Yep...

He has Press, Jeff Jarvis of buzzmachine.com (seems pretty straight up...been backing up Press) and David Gergen (the ONLY Repugnican I really trust).

Whorie's actually letting these guys spell out the story...a contrast to the hatchet job he and Leslie did the other day, but I suspect that's more since Whorie can't defend this and can't ignore it. This is his beat, afterall.

Of course, Kurtz drills Press on his Democratic party connections, but does Whorie mention his wife is a GOOP lobbyist? Yeah, he shines the light alright...the sunshine up the corporate media's ass.

2. I wish I could have seen that.

I wish Press still was on television.

3. Source?

Please post a source and try to get a full transcript. If a Sunday AM talk show, transcripts are usually available by the afternoon from the show's website.

5. CNN Reliable Source

Good show - I was betting no one on the Sunday morning talking shows would not dare to mention Gannon/Guckert.

6. Was Press on "unreliable scources"?

Is that where they had this confrontation?

I can't believe howie didn't know this was coming from Bill Press!
