An MSM pundit wants to fire someone

We hear day-by-day about all sorts of questionable practices by MSM news organizations and it seems nothing happens. But now there's a MSM pundit ready to fire someone?

If you're saying to yourself, "Sure. Is it Carl Rove or the President the pundit wants fired," then you understand just how most of MSM works.

This time it's the President who should be fired/impeached; and it's Beth Quinn of Middletown, New York's Times Record-Herald who wants him impeached.

Quinn's evidence for the impeachment? Must you ask?

Well, she offers the discredited Downing Street memos which the reporter who claimed to have gotten the originals from "a reliable source" says he no longer has. But he did make photo copies of them.

The photo copies? Where are they?

Why, the reporter burnt those, of course. Don't you understand?

Anyway, Confederate Yankee does a first-rate job of telling us about the "Downing Street memos," and in the process he helps us recognize the kind of pundit Beth Quinn is.

His post is a model of the sort of post I try for but often fall short of.

Nice work, CR!
