Bob Schieffer on FTN yesterday: what do you conclude from his statement?
Edited on Mon Apr-19-04 08:51 AM by LittleApple81
This is the from the transcript of yesterday's FTN (last paragraph) talking about Woodward's book:


Bob Woodward does what reporters are supposed to do. He checks the government's story against his own investigation. That's what sets democracies apart from totalitarian societies where the government is the only source of information. In a democracy, the press provide a second source. Citizens can then judge which story is correct. Bob Woodward has established himself as the best reporter of our time. He may be the best reporter of all time.
