"The Bottom Line: Judith Miller continued to carry WMD water for ...
Advertisements [?]
... the Administration a long time after she left the field of battle and gave up her choice beat, making speeches all across the country in 2003-2004 as a "warhawk." (A characterization she shares with former columnist and executive editor Bill Keller.) In the case of the revelation of the covert identity of Valerie Plame, she and possibly a collaborating editor chose NOT—after all—to write about the White House campaign to discredit Plame's spouse, even though Miller obviously knew about it.

We have observed the selling of the birthright of The New York Times that has made a mockery of Ochs' legendary "without fear or favor" commitment. For this citizen, it is a sad, and repulsive, sight. All for a mess of porridge consisting of non-existent WMDs, and outright collusion between a once-star reporter and some of the highest officials of the land.

From The Satrapy at West 43rd: One Armchair Critic's Disillusionment On The Eve of Full Disclosure by William E. Jackson Jr. on October 15, 2005

Mr Jackson says it all, and says it correctly. The full article is definitely worthy of your time.

Ms propagandist-in-chief Miller, I wish you a very long life, as to ensure the maximum exposure of you to the horrific consequences of your willful lies.

Mr Sulzberger and Mr Keller -- RESIGN IMMEDIATELY.


Peace.
