Unbelievable: Mark Halperin Distorts to Help Kerry

You remember him, right? He's the guy who thinks ABCNews should give Kerry a pass on his distortions, while holding Bush strictly to account.

Well, it seems he's a past-master at distorting himself. He takes a quote of Arnold Schwarzenegger's, in which Arnold criticizes both candidates but hits Kerry more sharply, and turns it into a pro-Kerry quote by Dowdification.

You will not believe this. You. Will. Not. Believe This.

Thanks to Physics Geek, who also links Michael Moore's hard-hitting "documentary" on the so-called "Fellowship" of the Ring.

Fellowship? Hah! A phony fellowship, a fellowship of the bribed and coerced.

To his credit - he's fixed it and apologized.

Ummmm... how the fuck did it happen in the first place?

I closed the barn door once after the horse got out. Instantly, the horse reappeard inside the barn.

I believe it.

wow.

the power of "...."

amazing. simply amazing.

Posted by: sonofnixon on October 15, 2004 05:07 PM

Phil,

I agree they (ABC corporately, not Halperin individually) have fixed it. HOWEVER, I do not see any apology on The Note page. Did I miss it somewhere? If so, please post link.

Thanks,

Steve C.

Steve C, I was following this at another site, saw someone posts a comment that they had corrected it and apologized. I took a quick look and say evidence they had made a change, and accepted that there was an apology. If they haven't apologized, then, uh, I apologize for misleading.

Even with the correction, it deserves opprobrium. It sure doesn't look like an innocent mistake. A competent 12 year old would read the original quote and realize it wasn't the same as the one reported.

I just don;t want anyone to email them as if it hasn't yet been fixed.

Phil

One of my co-workers has predicted, by the time I'm old and senile, that I will have been so angry over crap like this that he can almost hear me calling out to my daughter, "Misty, bring me my shotgun!!"

Oh, and "Get off my grass, you damned kids!!"
