Who is JULIE HIRSCHFELD DAVIS, and who ordered her to write...
Edited on Sat Mar-17-07 04:42 AM by Robeson
...this hit piece on AP....

Plame sheds little light in leak case...

*snip*

"She revealed little new information about the case, which sparked a federal investigation and brought perjury and obstruction of justice convictions of Vice President
Dick Cheney's former top aide, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby. No one has been charged with leaking her identity.

Still, Plame's appearance before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee was a moment of political theater that dramatized Democrats' drive to use their control of Congress to expose what they see as White House efforts to intimidate dissenters."

Was she watching a completely different hearing than I was? This article could have been written by Rove, which I'm sure it probably was.

3. I live 3 blocks from the Davis family...
and I happen to treat the PRESENT President of International House who also happens to have been the host of Prince Charles for his visit to Philly - as he is the honorary Consul/Ambassador to Philadelphia. And, he's, in the parlance of the day, African-American. Great guy.

What a weird small world...

4. Yeah and a lot of papers pick up
their stories right from AP so the bias, if not outright lies, just get repeated and repeated. Just like you, when I saw that headline early this morning, it jolted me awake instantly. The media in this country is a disaster and huge part of our problems. Plus, Valerie Plame and Joe Wilson have a lot of enemies now.
