Dana Priest's Troubling Connections

As many in the blogosphere know, Dana Priest and her husband, Leftwing activitst William Goodfellow, were part of a web of connections related to the anti-Bush movement. Jennifer Verner at Accuracy in Media lays out some of the troubling links.

...not a single mainstream media outlet has examined the documented histories and hard connections of money and political interest shared by Dana Priest, William Goodfellow, Mary McCarthy, Joe Wilson, Fenton Communications, Melvin Goodman and other vocal enemies of the Bush Administration. These relationships cannot be chalked up to random "inside the beltway" webs of acquaintance. They pose obvious and deeply troubling questions for anyone who values a free and independent press. The evidence suggests that Priest is part of a Democratic Party influence operation designed not only to politically damage the Bush Administration but to subvert U.S. foreign policy.
