This from the Minneapolis Star Tribune:

Quote:
There was quite a lot of bad and ugly, typified by the Swift Boat Vets for Truth and the Sinclair Broadcasting Group's effort to broadcast a smear as "news." To a lesser extent, Michael Moore was guilty of the same thing with his conspiracy theories in the film "Fahrenheit 9/11."


And, this devastating reply to the above by Hindrocket of Power Line:

Quote:
No one has ever explained how broadcasting footage of John Kerry and playing his own words can constitute a "smear." And only at the Star Trib are Michael Moore's utterly fictitious conspiracy theories the "same thing," only not as bad as, the Vets' efforts to place John Kerry's record before the American public. But I doubt that the Strib's slurs will do anything to dampen the Vets' enjoyment of the election results.


Just savor the concept that showing actual footage of JK's lies constitutes a "smear". I would not even get a newspaper if it weren't for missing the comics. Laughing

To a lesser extent

I thought I'd seen it all. Thanks for the update.

I fJohn Kerry says that he has released all his military records, the MSM believes must be true.

If George Bush says he released all his military records, the MSM believes must be false.

And the MSM is dumb enough to think no one noticed this? This is why they cannot understand why they lost. They believe they could get by with anything and that belief cost them big!

"Smear"? No. More like "scrape".

John-Boy is the one who smeared. He smeared on thick pancake makeup, created through his false actions 30+ years ago and his lies from then on, to cover his true face. This makeup was thick, and covered his true face well. It formed a pretty - but false and nearly impenetrable - mask for a long, long time.

SVPFT scraped off Kerry's mask. They showed Kerry's true face to the public - for most, for the first time.

Thanks.

These turds are so deep in the smear bussiness, they can't even recognize it when they see it anymore !!!!

Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to decieve.

but then, Practice makes Perfect

Apparently the Liberals are rank amateurs
I hope there are no Liberals in the NSA, we'd all be up the creek. Twisted Evil

I think the main stream media took a page from the BOOK of GOEBBELS for their cue Razz
