And their journalistic integrity. It's from Protein Wisdom, which I guess is a right-wing source, as opposed to a left-wind source or whatever. I don't care.
Crooks and Liars, as it follows from the name, is a left-wing blog that stocks different video footage for posterity.
Now, the critique of Smith is really disingenious. It is one thing to spew out generic words about news media sensationalizing stories like baby rescues from locked cars (and this is something that gets mentioned on the left much more than it is on the right). It is another thing to criticize someone who is standing in a place where thousands of people are suffering for using access to TV cameras to try to get someone to notice.
So, please, by all means, talk about media changing the way it covers stories. But use examples that fit, not examples of reporters on the field standing up to wingnut talking heads in the studio (much as one might like one's wingnut talking head friends).
Does he want to make honest arguments or crap on journalists who spent the Katrina aftermath in New Orleans? I think the latter. Given that about four stories below, he goes for this: http://www.proteinwisdom.com/index.php/weblog/entry/19076/ which, is yet another sign of disingenuity on the part of your right-wing friends. (Or should I have used a less politically colored link?).
Maybe he is like that, I don't know, I do not read him on a regular basis. But I wonder how many people actually participated in the protest. The question here is not how many could, but how many did. However, this question is not important to me and not particularly interesting, so I am not pursuing it. :-)
