This is News?

A top producer at ABC NEWS declared "Bush makes me sick" in an email obtained by the DRUDGE REPORT.

John Green, currently executive producer of the weekend edition of GOOD MORNING AMERICA, unloaded on the president in an ABC company email obtained by the DRUDGE REPORT.

"If he uses the 'mixed messages' line one more time, I'm going to puke," Green complained.

The blunt comments by Green, along with other emails obtained by the DRUDGE REPORT, further reveal the inner workings of the nation's news outlets.

A friend of Green's at ABC says Green is mortified by the email. "John feels so badly about this email. He is a straight shooter and great producer who is always fair. That said, he deeply regrets the sentiment expressed in the email and the embarrassment it causes ABC News."

This isn't news -- at least not to me. I hear worse than that in the newsroom every single day. Although liberal journalists deny it, they hate the President and make no bones about it when they mingle with their own. I've come to dread Monday nights because the three most liberal editors in the place come together on the same shift and it sounds like a meeting of the old Bolsheviks. I just sit at my desk and cringe as they exchange lies and hatred and truthiness. A friend says Green is "mortified" by the comments. I can understand how he could be mortified that his true nature has been revealed to the world. "He deeply regrets" what he said. That's a liberal's idea of an apology. What he deeply regrets is that he got caught. He doesn't deeply regret his hatred of the President. Meanwhile, I am mortified once again to be a journalist.

Well, if the truth sets you free, and the journalists are supposed to be unbiased, shouldn't this mean he gets fired?

Yep, No surprises here. He has just confirmed, for all the world to see, what the majority of the media really thinks.

What slays me is how his spokesman explains it. How could he possibly have meant anything besides exactly what he said? As if it was just a slip.

"He is a straight shooter and great producer who is always fair" What a crock!.
