What If?
Consider the following article from
The New York Times and imagine if the target wasn't CBS News:
...
The Bush Administration CBS News suffered a crushing blow to its credibility yesterday because of a
policy broadcast that has now been labeled as both factually discredited and unprofessionally
promoted produced.
"This should never have happened," said
Colin Powell Leslie Moonves, the
outgoing Secretary of State CBS chairman who announced the
impeachment dismissals of
the president, vice president, Secretary of Defense, and National Security Advisor four executives yesterday in the wake of an independent
special prosecutor's panel's report. The
prosecutor panel found that the
Bush administration "60 Minutes"
policy regarding Iraq program that dealt with President Bush's service in the Texas Air National Guard was
full of outright lies, distortions, misstatements, fear mongering, cheap political manuevering, and just plain wrong--not to mention an appalling failure unfair and misleading after being
pushed upon the public rushed to broadcast without proper
consideration of the consequences for Iraqi civilians, the US military, the tax payers, and the general public vetting.
Just wondering...
