David Schuster talking of Rove, novak, cia leak on Tweety now.

[rodeodance]

[rodeodance]

1. says no comment from either Novak or VP office today of Waas article

[rodeodance]

3. Fineman saying looks like Fitz is reeling in Cheney to testify as 'hostile

witness.

[rodeodance]

4. prob. Keith O. will have him on tonight also (Schuster).

[LSparkle]

2. I LOVE David Shuster!

I think he'd rather work for Keith O. than Tweety ... He's often on "Countdown" as well as "Spitball."

[emulatorloo]

5. from my observations, Hardball has done WAY more w Plamegate than KO

Matthews has featured Schuster's reporting a lot more than KO, and devoted entire shows to the CIA Leak Investigation, which as far as I know Countdown has never done.

[H2O Man]

9. Right.

Matthews has provided the very best Plame coverage in the corporate media. A significant asset is David Shuster's reporting. For Shuster, it is not an "either/or" choice with the two shows. To suggest otherwise indicates a lack of awareness of the amount of direction Matthews provides Shuster.

10. Tweety can smell when the wind changes:Downwind of a cesspool is unmista

unmistakeable.

He knows his team is going down.

[sendero]

11. Here's to..

... Tweety's nose for shit! May it be 100% accurate!

[jazzjunkysue]

16. "Gotta be one to know one!"

:hi:

[blm]

21. hahahah... now THAT I can toast ....

17. Don't forget, Matthews was the one who tipped off Wilson to Rover's

"Wilson's wife is fair game" statement.

Also, Libby's call to Big Tim around July 10, 11 July 2003 that he banked so much on, was to complain about Matthew's critcal comments on the war, if I recall correctly. As much as Matthews inexplicably gets enthralled by the sight of Bush in a flight suit, he was against the war as I recall.

Matthews is a strange one but his coverage of the Plame case has perhaps been the only continuing and significant coverage of the case on a network "news" program. Olberman does cover the matter, but I think it may be fair to say that Tweety's program takes the lead on Plamegate coverage, and not just at MSNBC.

13. MSNBC: Rove confirms Novak conversation; Fitzgerald turns toward Cheney

MSNBC: Rove confirms Novak conversation; Fitzgerald turns toward Cheney

RAW STORY
Published: Thursday May 25, 2006

In Hardball's daily dish on the CIA leak trial Thursday, MSNBC's David Shuster said the latest filings raise new questions about Vice President Cheney's potential role in the outing of a CIA agent, and that sources close to Karl Rove confirm that Rove did have a followup conversation about his calling conservative columnist Robert Novak. A report in the National Journal today suggests Novak considered 'covering' for Rove in the case.

Transcript follows.

CHRIS MATTHEWS, MSNBC ANCHOR: On Monday, Hardball correspondent David Shuster first reported the likelihood Vice President Cheney himself would be called as a witness stand by prosecutors in the CIA leak case against Scooter Libby. Last night, prosecutors filed a motion formally notifying Libby and the Court that Cheney may, in fact, be a prosecution witness. The new pre-trial documents underscore the central role of Vice President Cheney in his office's focus on an administration critic whose wife worked at the CIA and saw her cover status compromised. Here now is David Shuster.

14. David Schuster talks, and I notice he gets

almost nothing right. Yet, he talks and talks.

Guys with those jobs ought to be penalized big bucks when their "Karl Rove will be indicted shortly" stories, among others, don't pan out.

Schuster's a bore, like the rest of them

[fooj]

15. Yawn...

Yes. Repetition is tiring.

[pacalo]

19. You got that right.

:hi:

[DoYouEverWonder]

30. Talks about bores?

n/t

[Catrina]

20. He's reporting on the court filings. What could he not get right about

that? In many of the previous court filings (reported accurately by Jason Leopold over the past several months and his reporting was ahead of the MSM btw) Cheney has been mentioned as the Grand Jury testimonly of several witnesses was revealed. I have found that both Leopold and Schuster reported on those filings accurately whenever I had a chance to read transcripts of the documents themselves.

If he got something wrong, could you explain what it was? It's possible, everyeone gets things wrong sometimes.

[blm]

22. I'm with you... what was wrong? And why dump on one of the handful of

reporters who is even covering the story?

[Catrina]

26. Excellent question ~ n/t

[JNelson6563]

29. I'd like to see that question answered

Why would anyone dump on one of the few actually covering this important story beyond what the WH tells them to report?

That is very mysterious.

31. You can tell a tree

by its fruit.

[Semblance]

23. Not fair

This is not a fair assessment of Shuster's reporting, which for the most part has been quite good. It is true that he twice recently mentioned an expected indictment within "two weeks", but overall he has been good at getting out the factual details.

[JuniperLea]

24. Jeez... how many hard ons can one person have for the media

And why aren't you writing for the media if you know exactly how it should be done?

Nothing ever pans out for people with no patience.

Perhaps you can enlighten with some facts on your comment with regards to Schuster getting almost nothing right?

[blm]

27. HEY.... *I'M* in charge of hardons against the media on this forum.

;)))))

And I have at least a thousand posts that resemble that remark.

[JuniperLea]

34. If it lasts more than four hours

You should call a doctor!


:p

[zippy890]

25. seems to me he's a damn good reporter

you say he 'gets almost nothing right'?

think you must be watching fox news

32. since you're so smart

and I'm so 'stupid' to think Schuster is a good reporter,
what is you response to posts #20 and #23?

[OldLeftieLawyer]

33. No, no....

First, prove to me that Schuster is a good reporter, because you're wrong about that.

So, you made the assertion - now back it up. Show me what he's got.

See how smart I am and how you walked into that one?

Now, go live in IgnoreLand.

<click>

[zippy890]

35. asks a question, tells me to back something up

and in the same post puts me on Ignore?!

whats up with that?

:wtf:

[lonestarnot]

18. listening! Goooooooooood. It was in latest breaking this a.m.
