Wolf Bites Weiner – CNN’s Blitzer Shocked That Weiner Lied To HIM.
Heaven FORFEND!!! Wolf Blitzer, the shell that once had guts, is this minute explaining to whoever is the CNN moderator at this hour just how hurt and upset he is that Anthony Weiner lied to us all, and more: “He looked into my eyes and lied.” Gosh. That’s like peeing on the Pope’s shoes, huh? Wolf Blitzer has on nearly every occasion, and for many years now, spouted the conventional wisdom. When in that period has he . . . Please go on reading . . .
actually done journalism? He’s become one of the great bullshit artists on t.v. Plus, he often deems to lecture about morals and ethics. Surely, he’s not in the same absurd cadre as Glenn Beck, Bill O, or Gingo Gingrich, but he does go on.
And just a few minutes ago he unloaded on Anthony Weiner. Weiner’s worst sin, it seems, was lying to Blitzer. The goofball moderator asks him, “Has he apologized to you?” No, he has not, and Wolf acted out being nonchalant about it, “and I wouldn’t expect him to.” Of course. Blitz did announce that Weiner must “man up,” that rightwing phrase so favored by essentially weak persons. Weiner must finally tell the absolute truth, Wolf directs.
Finally, and I hate (really) to beat this drum constantly, but as usual for the media in this circus performance, Blitzer didn’t even try to put Weiner’s situation in context. No mention of Senator David Vitter, nor of Ex Senator John Ensign, whose digressions are in a decidedly more professional league than Weiner’s Little Little League. . .
One astute blogger, Fixer, at Alternate Brain, asks the 64 Trillion dollar question, though, and, a la Blitzer, I deeply resent that he beat me to it:
When you say Anthony Weiner has to “man up” and come clean in his upcoming news conference, do you mean the way you and your colleagues in the press “manned up” about cheerleading us into the Iraq War?
Man up, Wolf!
