Howard Dean Tells Scarborough: New York Times "Substituting THEIR Judgement For News"

[kpete]

Dean said the things you mustn’t say about the New York Times! As a result, he fought off complaints from Times reporter Jeremy Peters, who pretended to be offended by Dean’s offensive remarks.

In the part of the segment shown below, Scarborough pretends to be offended by Dean’s remarks. To watch the fuller exchange, click here:

DEAN (4/23/15): First of all, I haven’t seen the story and neither have you, right?...I will say, there is an epidemic of really sloppy reporting that goes from the top to the bottom...I’d like to see what all the facts are here, because so far we haven’t really seen—

SCARBOROUGH: Why don’t you read the story before accusing the New York Times of being sloppy?

DEAN: Because in general, the New York Times has been sloppy, particularly their political writers. I use the New York Times as an example in journalism classes, because by the fifth paragraph in any political story—we can probably find one right here, whatever the political story on the front page is. By the fifth paragraph, they’re substituting their judgment for news.

SCARBOROUGH: Howard, I just got to say. I consider you a good friend of mine. I think it is unbecoming for you to come on this show and, and to just reflexively attack everybody who tries to bring up any information that goes against what you want people to hear about Hillary Clinton.

DEAN: They did it to George W. Bush! That’s what they do.

1. At least the NYT waits an average of 5 paragraphs to substitute opinion for news....Fox waits a word or two.

Notice how Joe's questions and comments are no better than and identical to trolling comments on DU.....reducing RW TV talking heads to written words taking away the visual cues and gone of voice and bluster reduces them to their base element...trolls.

But notice how Dean's liberal, real world words spoken from a position of truth and study and analysis, like all good liberals do before speaking, translate into actually making sense and not troll-like at all.
