Outright sycophancy #2
Al Hunt and Mark Shields seem to have lost their appreciation of "nuance" over the past week. Seems they can't differentiate between protecting the confidentiality of a source and covering up the actions of a hoaxer.
Can anyone imagine Al Hunt NOT rushing to print with the name of a Swift Boat Vet who gave him fraudulent information incriminating Kerry? Can anyone conceive of Mark Shields defending a person who gave him fake documents describing Kerry's Purple Heart circumstances in a less-than-favorable light?
Of course not. That's why they're part of the dinosaur media.
