The Drive By Media Does it Again

From Newsbusters:

On Monday's Countdown show, MSNBC host Keith Olbermann, presumably picking up on a posting by the far left ThinkProgress.org -- one of his regular sources of information to attack conservatives -- made the arguably inaccurate claim that FNC political analyst Bill Kristol had on the Thursday, November 12, Special Report with Bret Baier on FNC, called for Fort Hood gunman Nidal Hasan to be convicted and executed without trial. After calling the FNC analyst's words "anti-American," and quoting a portion of Kristol's words, Olbermann lectured:

But seriously, the men and women that this man killed – however you define him – those men and women of the U.S. military, Mr. Kristol, were fighting for the right to trial, due process, justice. Thanks for spitting on the dead of Fort Hood, William Kristol, today’s “Worst Person in the World.”
--------------------

Now after doing some research and looking at the clip, the accusation of Kristol's words, are incorrect. He never said that.

This is the media for you. This is the left wing, drive by media. They arive at a story, in a car, they pull out their DNC propaganda, they're left wing spin, or their 'liberal guns' and do an all out assault on the news story, and convert it into a left wing slanted opinion. Then once they have done their damage, they drive away.

  1. Yes, the drive-by media is limited to the vast left-wing conspiracy. You aren't guilty of this at all.

  4. but there is a vast difference from the blogsphere, talk radio, and the news. When this is news reporting or on a news channel, it is far different. Now i am guilty of exposing media stories, and taking quotes and giving them my own twist or opinion, but i don't tend to go to the level of the main steam media.
