Election year media whores: Journalists dating high-placed Repugs
Strange bedfellows (NBC's Campbell Brown dating Dan Senor, former spokesman for Paul Bremmer)
NY Daily News

NBC News star Campbell Brown is taking undercover reporting to a new level. The sultry correspondent is dating former Bush White House adviser Dan Senor, we hear. Word is he and Brown have been dating since at least the Democratic National Convention.

Brown has done several interviews with Senor. While declining to comment on Brown's personal life, an NBC rep said it sees no conflict of interest in her covering the race for the White House.

Brown isn't the only newswoman who likes political pillow talk. The Boston Globe's Washington bureau chief Nina Easton is engaged to Russ Schreifer, a Republican campaign strategist who specializes in gathering research against John Kerry.

But Easton, who collaborated with other Globe reporters on "John F. Kerry," maintains she and Schreifer maintain an ethical "Chinese wall" between their personal and professional lives.

11. Technically, she is correct
She has a huge gaseous windbag in her life. ;)

Good to know she dumped the junkie.

3. That explains Campbell's comments on NBC Matthews last Sunday.
She was so clearly biased toward Bush.

4. Didn't the Mongols...
Didn't the Mongols penetrate the Great Wall basically at will?

Maybe Berlin Wall would have been more appropriate?

5. It is a rare Chinese Wall that can withstand the exchange of
bodily fluids.

The liberal media grows curiouser and curiouser. One day it will fall off its wall and not even a whole evening of cable lies will be able to put it back together again.

7. Damn, can you say "conflict of interest?"
In some workplaces, it's taboo to even date colleagues.

The right wing doesn't even try to conceal their self-serving shit anymore, yet it seems that most people don't even care. :grr:

15. You know, I thought Campbell had a distinct dingy tone...
... on "Hardball" after the third debate.

Despite all evidence to the contrary, she couldn't stop singing Bush's praises. I kept looking at her, thinking "What in the hell debate did you just watch?"

Makes more sense now. Dan Senor? Ewwwwww.
