yeah, especially as DN! has been doing it since before there was much blogging.

and, for example, jeremy scahill (of blackwater fame) has worked with amy goodman for a long time. from wikipedia:

Scahill and colleague Amy Goodman were co-recipients of the 1998 George Polk Award for their radio documentary, “Drilling and Killing: Chevron and Nigeria’s Oil Dictatorship”, which documented the Chevron Corporation’s alleged role in the killing of two Nigerian environmental activists.

amy goodman isn’t just a talking head, she’s been a fantastic and courageous investigative reporter. and of course, she has glenn on for extended interviews - which shows excellent judgment, imo. *g*

if i was limited to just one news source - it would be DN! without a doubt.

Q- oh, the stuff I’d heard about does not involve him losing it with liberal journalists!

Glenn:
Any plans for you to be on Colbert or The Daily Show?

Daily Show would be a really good idea! Perfect, IMO. Both shows are, really!

I believe I’d file that one under “many a truth is spoke in jest”…

Thanks Jane and Glen.

In the context of the discussion I started wondering how much video or even audio there is out of there him blowing up. I’d sure like to see that used as anti McCain TV commercial- tho I doubt that the Dem presidential contender would go there

even if commercials like that would come out, the 29 percenters would say that McVain only shows his manliness by giving those librul journalist their come uppance… And the talking heads would applaud his mavericainness.

A very dysfunctional bunch they are.

Sometimes I feel as if we are fighting ourselves out of a brown paper bag. It’s got some holes now, but I want it gone.

No Glenn. American ARE stupid and shallow. To a degree that few can risk so much as allowing themselves to imagine.
