Newsweek should have said: ‘We’ll retract the story if you, Mr. McClellan, tell us what it was that slamed into the pentagon on 9/11.” It sure wasn’t a 757.

Newsweek finally did retract. “A good first step,” says the White House. Yes– a good first step for good little Nazis.

It is recommended that one hear Moyers’ comments on this. The Big Chill. We need Moyers. We don’t need some right-wing, newly-appointed Bushian flack skewing Public Televison towards
the right (or towards any ideology).
