it's sis is
really
stunning
volun
just how bad c_n_n_ was yesterday
and um...
and fox to put in and really was really pushing this
uh... and everybody was siding c_n_n_
and now a delight literally eat it was so bad
now when i see stuff from c_n_n_ is the next day i a m literal i hesitate
it was a really bad at about one forty five
and if you want to see a great will put a link to this
um...
majority report producer of merit is dorsey
who's over a busted now
uh...
put up a great time line that is uh... worth scene
but at one forty five pm john king
from c_n_n_
sites phase
often law enforcement stores
is saying that i've just been told an arrest has been made
and
uh... that lagaya line where francine townsend
friend townsend the the bush administration
some type of counter tenor terrorism official she was whole
oracle in that position
just a huge political hack
she
ads
uh... some information about it may be domestic it may be this in that
literally at two oh for it
c_n_n_ analyst juliet came in says quote
where being a
very cautious
and speculative accuracy
so let's end to this compilation that media matters but the uh... of
uh...
some of what was happening in the afternoon this is just
it's just amazing couplings
and hold the date
i was told that they have a breakthrough and identification suspect i thought i
would be very careful about this because people get very sensibly say these
things i was told
a lot of these sources with the law enforcement officials about that this
was a dark-skinned
rabbit official use some other words i'm not gonna repeat them until we get more
information because of the sensitivity or some people who will take a fancy but
i think that i understand that on to say this is willing to meet
sources agreed on the investigation exact inspected the suspect was a
dark-skinned male
that information comes from the police and other yet say whether that person
spoke with the foreign accent american action out or anything like that that
that would be premature back so
so
for stuff
i suspect what uh... that uh... source had sad to say after john king
uh... you know it's it's
the tell me retarted years said some other things that i'm not gonna say
i suspect what those other things work
all waited to delhi all this is just a joke
this is just i'm just download spent mall in here
and at wolf blitzer as as a it would be insensitive
to comment is whether or not as a
an american accent or forgotten in this is just
starting i mean
method where you go from this you go work for bright bart dot com or what
i mean it's just it's just sloppy itself sloppy in their so desperate
to make them says relevant again
uh... they did the same thing with the supreme court ruling and they do that
too i mean
he how it started to give it a point where if you if there's a breaking story
view it as a paper aching news
go to c_n_n_ to find out what is not the story
the opposite the opposite
the opposite news network
your credit most opposite
gave me a new ste particularly picture the rest of the stuff the cops said be
something like
and why are you asking me a disturbing cop right
okay dot tell you what i am a job at all really dull but i think i saw some you
know some mock
allot are system brown skin dot dot let you know i don't think i will say this
is that what i was listening to the police scanner all and uh... on the day
at the marathon
the police were saying to each other at the time
that they had founded incendiary device
at the j_f_k_ uh... library
they were saying this on the radio
it's just too early
in the problem is that these guys
or or are they at c_n_n_ we're just so uh... height
to report anything
that this is what they think a continuous
resources to use for their language
characterize and i've just as a reporter who's been through a lot of these you
know that sometimes the information you get is not in the end turned out to be
what happens in the end up making out personal judgment hurted me
it is the right and articulated what the bacon the other personal judgment about
the initial one at me
this is pretty damaging for john king this is all you have right is your
ability
to assess whether or not your source is credible and
you know i don't
i two i don't consider myself a reporter but
are a sift through news from many different sources
uh... and make assessments about credibility of all the time
and my credibility hinges upon that in if i'm not confident
super confident
artist will repeat it
i will say i'm gonna just
a needed on this story i won't be out in front of this story because i just don't
feel confident in what i'm reading
and
i'm willing to
have people email me and say why aren't you covering this
and have people say you were down for that's part of why
the jobs and
you know you got a you've you've got a cell for uh... the consequences of that
we have any more
so uh... you know c_n_n_ i don't know if it's uh... it's pretty bad
elitist i think that really highly and
its data and use levels better journalism leveled at the compound all
irresponsibility
by throwing out
the race if somebody
well it apart and they said brown
and so they kind of just mad like you know somebody who is standing
lose it and i
eyes complexion is i mean
that the other thing that the other aspect of this that is so sir stunning
is that
highly irresponsible
to talk about the guys
skin complexion
uh... because that's really irrelevant
fake delivering rivera
or i live uh... you know i live in quincy
according to a lot
and a lot like a lot a lot you know did show i'd like to go tanning salons
and and and you know in this is the guy
john dinner
i mean yeah exactly no i mean how does it tell us now i mean i dot org election
is sort of brown it doesn't tell us
anything at that point absolute that's true substantively i'm just saying in
that environment and where people go
when you throw that out knowing what how people interpret to run with it
allegiances have all the alamo that's my life wrote that's my point right that's
a big eyes brown skinned
means nothing
if the cops says to you
okay
it's the most
sort of
uh...
the most
reliable source you could know it's you brother-in-law he's never lied to you
after
any cards
you guys
has got a brown complexion
as a reporter at that point you say
that's meaningless
that's like saying
the guy has brown eyes
meaningless
it doesn't tell us anything you need
more information
that is just should come
as usual
link date
that is there's nothing to do that
and here's why you repeat that as you say is because it gives people an
inflection point
anything kaiser
it's meaningless it dosn't tell you
if you were to be told
the guy has
a uh... arabic surname
that is
something to report i think
he does not say tell you why he's done it
but it's it's something that is at least
substantive in some
because
it goes towards the guys identity
the fact that he has a brown complexion
meaningless woman working backwards from both premises is assuming that there
actually was companies begin with
well and then on top of that
apparently this person was fictional
or
who don't
they may have a suspect
day as somebody may have said stuff
um... added to the idea that the other systems that run information but
the brown
the brown complexion thing is really at the end of the day
the most offensive
because
it tells you nothing
it tells you
nothing
it's just who sort of link bait
