Help me remember who were the worst reporters
during Gore's campaign. I swore I would never forget, but I did. Help me remember so I can continue the pressure.

2. Candy Croweley was
putrid of course, woofwoof wasn't much better, and tweety sucked like he does now (all over the ballpark, but mostly bashing Gore). God, what ***holes they were and still are.:(

4. you can start with Ceci Connolly and Katherine Seelye
they were written up many times in the Daily Howler

they helped perpetrate the Love Canal myth

Connolly PURPOSELY misquoted Gore, changing a word in one of his quotes to make it look like he took credit for discovering the whole thing, when he was talking about WHO brought it to his attention

when she was told they got this whole thing wrong, she basically said, SO WHAT?

just for starters

pretty much ALL mainstream reporters had it in for Kerry, for whatever reason. they were mostly said to have HATED him.

dunno why

on the other side, they LIKED Bush. I just don't get that at all

how could you not realize what a complete and utter phony that guy is?

5. Seelye wrote a scathing review of Kerry's second debate performance
just to show how completely out of touch she is
