CNN's Miles O'Brien skeptical about NYC Terror "Timing" this morning

[npincus]

he asked his guest (don't know who- I just caught the end of the interview) if he thought it was "just a coincidence" that the terror alert was announced the same day as the President's "big speech on terror"

the guest replied the same talking points the gov't seems to be disseminating: the federal gov't didn't expect NYC officials to notify public, they were skeptical about the credibility of the information, bla, bla, bla.

Then Miles O'Brien said "well, it IS an election season".. and the segment ended.

the more I see of him lately, I think he is becoming more vocal in expressing a center, or left-of-center perspective.

2. I've been "crushing" on Miles O'Brien lately ...

I don't necessarily think that he's reporting left of center ... He is just not hesitant to express disbelief when told some of the patently ridiculous info reporters are given. I think he just won't spin for the administration anymore; which is excellent ... I don't want "spin" right or left.

4. Agree, I don't want reporters spinning for anyone, just do their job

and ask hard questions of everyone, call people on lies or exaggeration, and get the he** back to the research, investigate and fact check model of reporting!!!
