Got somebody's attention
Yesterday's
post about Andrew Breitbart promising to release more ACORN tapes unless Attorney General Eric Holder does his job and investigate them seems to have hit a nerve.
From
Columbia Journalism Review:
Well, It May Deserve an Award in Something
Memo to Sean Hannity, who is calling for James O�Keefe, Hannah Giles, and Andrew Breitbart to get a �journalism award� for their video sting of ACORN: Generally, when in possession of what one believes to be newsworthy information, the journalistic thing to do is get it out to the public�not attempt to blackmail the attorney general.
Andrew writes at
Big Government:
Thanks for Paying Attention Big Journalism
In response to the Columbia Journalism Review�s accusing me of �blackmailing� the Attorney General of the United States, I must take notice that the mainstream media as a journalistic establishment IS paying attention to the ongoing ACORN scandal. Good. I thought so.
What the Columbia Journalism Review is doing is very similar to what Media Matters is doing: protecting the Democrat-Media Complex, the natural alliance of the Democratic Party and the mainstream media. This ACORN investigation has been going on for two months and Hannah, James, and I have proven to be truth-tellers every step of the way, while the Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now has been proven time and again to be liars.
Heh...
