"ABC News White House reporter Jake Tapper e-mailed Sawyer twice on June 23, both to note coverage of competitor NBC.

With a subject line of “NBC spot was slimy,” Tapper e-mailed Sawyer a “Today” show transcript of Sanford coverage, calling it “insulting.” Later, Tapper forwarded Sawyer a Twitter post by “Meet The Press” host David Gregory.

Jeff Schneider, a vice president at ABC News, said Tapper was “carrying some water for producers who knew he had a relationship with the governor’s office.”

1. Why am I not surprised at Tapper's actions...

could it be because he and his 'buddy' Gregory are the antithesis of objective media persons? Yep, that could be it.

Thanks for posting this, it is appreciated.

:shrug: We all make mistakes I guess..

3. I think the proper label is "whore"

tapper has no integrity left. I wonder when his employer will realize that.

Fellating their rightwing corporate overlords and protecting their interests.
