MWO - KURTZ PROBE WIDENS AMID NEW CHARGES

KURTZ PROBE WIDENS AMID NEW CHARGES


'Flagrant' Abuses Cited
Mistah K's Silence Deepens Suspicions
CNN Tapes, Invite Lists Under Scrutiny

The probe into Howard "Mistah" Kurtz’s ethics violations has deepened, highly informed sources have told MWO.

As reported earlier on MWO, Kurtz faced charges that he used his Washington Post column to promote the financial interests of his wife, the right-wing Republican media consultant Sherri Annis.

...

Now, sources close to the investigation tell MWO, the net has been cast wider, to include allegations of systematic abuse of journalistic ethics by the embattled media columnist.

...

The same source explained that there is suspicion Kurtz may be involved in a hand-in-glove operation that helps him line his pocket.

2. And look at this snip
"Kurtz has been tied directly to a small group of Republican operatives, including several who were instrumental as "elves" and "hate Clinton" commentators during the partisan impeachment crisis five years ago.

"He’s been pretty flagrant about it," one veteran Washington observer told MWO. "Hanging out with Barbara Comstock, Joe diGenova, and the rest of the 'Hate Clinton' crowd. I'm amazed it's taken this long, frankly, for somebody to blow the whistle."






this could not happen to a more deserving person, well maybe it could happen to Piggy Russert!!

5. Elves?
I would guess that a Rethuglican elf is more like a troll or gargoyle, perhaps an orc. :P

4. I'm so goddamn glad I can't stand it.

Buh-bye Howie. Go suck for the Republicans
at The Weekly Standard why dontcha? They don't
care about ethics or standards when you're one
of their own.

6. "systematic abuses of journalistic ethics"???
That's pretty funny considering that such violations are routinely performed daily across all of both print and TV Corporate Pravda.

And, of course, the even-more-routine ethics violations of the Party-Loyal Bushevik Sub-Media don't even count because they aren;t journalists, anyway, but paid propagandists wholly similar to Julius Streicher (different Talking Points, though)
