The
once great Washington Post Kaplan Daily's associate editor, life-long Rethuglican, and Beltway media elitist is pushing a new line of attack against the Obama administration:
They thweatened me! After you follow the link to the email exchange, you'll see there was no "threat" (other than to what might be left of Woodward's rapidly diminishing reputation). Clearly this d-bag is pulling out all the stops to sell his new book and/or change the conversation from the
journalistic malpractice in which he was recently involved regarding the sequester. The administration and progressives need to keep pushing back against this smug shill.
This guy clearly has an agenda, and it's not the truth. Check out No More Mister Nice Blog's update about how, when Woodward gave his story to
Tiger Beat on the Potomac Politico (revealing, no?), there were some curiously missing words --
replaced by an ellipsis (a.k.a., Woodward's "
18-minute gap").
UPDATE: Having seen the actual email exchange, some in the wingnutosphere, who hoped to flog this story to death, are
regretting getting involved.
