MSM Journalists Don't Read; What Else is New

Captain's Quarters explains, via the example of David Broder of the NY Times, the absolute refusal of journalists to read government reports to get their facts straight.

David Broder never bothered to read the report from the Senate Select Intelligence Committee, which spells out the facts (of the Administration) and the lies (of Joe Wilson).

This is not surprising, however. Journalists also never read David Kay's report on Iraq's WMD programs or the 9/11 Commission's report on Al Qaeda/Iraq ties. Instead, they just print whatever they feel like and perpetuate inaccuracies.

And they then claim that Bush got the facts wrong...give me a break.
