Easongate Continued

Linda Foley, president of the 35,000 member Newspaper Guild, recently repeated claims of CNN Chief Eason Jordan (see Easongate) that U.S. soldiers deliberately target journalists for killing in Iraq.

Linda Foley, speaking Friday in St. Louis, said the American attacks are focused particularly on Arab journalists, according to a tape aired by Sinclair Broadcasting's "The Point," a commentary segment by Mark Hyman.

According to a tape of her remarks, Foley said: "Journalists, by the way, are not just being targeted verbally or … ah, or … ah, politically. They are also being targeted for real, um … in places like Iraq. What outrages me as a representative of journalists is that there's not more outrage about the number, and the brutality, and the cavalier nature of the U.S. military toward the killing of journalists in Iraq."

And some people wonder why newspapers have such a liberal bias. Thank you, Linda, for reminding us that Newsweek's error was not a one-time mistake in a specific report, but an example of the systematic B.S. that is condoned and encouraged by the MSM.
