Jordangate: Howard Kurtz Wants Your Questions
And Mickey Kaus, sweet-natured and helpful soul that he is, is gentleman enough to help Howie out. Kurtz will be answering email-submitted questions on Monday -- unless, of course, "prior obligations" suddenly cause him to cancel -- and it seems like an opportune time to ask him when he'll be covering the Eason Jordan affair.
Go here to submit questions for Mr. Kurtz to answer.
Like: When will you seek out the videotape of Jordan's remarks so we can all determine whether they were "taken out of context" or not?
Will you show this videotape on Reliable Sources?
Why haven't you even mentioned this major media story yet, and when do you plan to stop merely "taking a look" at it and actually write about it?
Or try asking the hypothetical with the name "Eason Jordan" stripped out. Like: If a major player in a major global media organization makes unsubstantiated charges against the US Military, shouldn't the rest of the media take him to task for such irresponsible conspiracy-mongering?
I'm sure you can think of others. Keep them polite. But pointed.
