SCARBOROUGH: Why dont 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 storywe can probably find one right here, whatever the political story on the front page is. By the fifth paragraph, theyre 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! Thats what they do.

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.
