Times: Miller May Have Misled Editors

It's one thing when the MSM lies/misleads/fails to report on stories that fall outside of their definition of, as the NYT states it, "...news that's fit to print". (Which is more realistically ..."news that fits, we print"). I mean, that's waht they are, and that's what they do.

The twist here is for "ace reporter" Judith Miller apparently lying to her own editors about what she's been doing on their time and dime.

It's almost...as if once they start playing loose with the truth in one area, they get into the habit of doing so, and continue it, even "in house".

Ultimately one can expect liars in one area to lie in others. THIS is what is meant by the (much maligned by the MSM) concept that "character counts", eh?

Abe finds this Wall Street Journal piece about Joel Henry Hinrichs, the "OU Bomber," and the piece points out that while the MSM barely covered the incident, almost everything they covered was completely wrong. Several facts about the case fed...

Cards' season ends with Game 6 loss in NLCS

Well, I suppose it's back to blogging as usual now that the Cardinals are out of the post-season. Congrats to Houston, I guess - they obviously were pumped for the playoffs, and played better at least in the post-season.

The Chief thinks it would have been better if they had a better sustained record over the season - but that's the breaks of the way the system is organized.

What leaves a bad taste also is the clearly visible (on TV) bad call by the umpire in the thrid inning that took the steam out of a Cardinals offensive move. Again, unfortunately, that's part of the game too.

This was the final game in the present Busch Stadium (the new one will be the 3rd Busch Stadium!). Also it's the end of the Cardinals on KMOX radio. The relatively puny new station's signal can't make it to South Dakota, so maybe it's time to look at XM Satellite Radio or something.

"...there was no joy in Mudville.
Mighty Casey had struck out."

Go White Sox!
