Arno Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Maybe it was a mistake on Matthews' part by letting his guard down. Whether a mistake or deliberate, he sure let the cat out of the bag this morning. He let us know that as a journalist objectivity is not his strong suit. But actually he told us what we already knew. You'd think he'd be smart enough to keep up a pretense. This is the guy who gets a thrill down his leg whenever Obama speaks. Typical main stream media Obama lemming. http://www.breitbart.tv/?p=214673&comments=1 ______________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slacker Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 I saw Matthews say that today. Even his co-hosts seemed a little shocked at the words coming out of his mouth. Safe bet that he got a phone call from Brokaw before lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arno Posted November 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Send him to the dog track, he is losing his faculties. Right. That guy has said so many dumb things, yet he's still broadcasting. Youtube is full of his stupidity. ______________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arno Posted November 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Was Chris Matthews ever considered a journalist? He describes himself as one. <edit> From his link: "Matthews is an author, international journalist, and no-nonsense political commentator." http://www.thechrismatthewsshow.com/...bout_chris.php ______________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditch Jigger Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 He describes himself as one. Journalist can have a couple of meanings. He's a political commentator that's a cheerleader for the Democratic Party. Has been since day 1. Why anyone's surprised at this is beyond me. Before he went into broadcasting, he was a staffer for Moynihan in NY. William F. Buckley could call himself a journalist--so could Howie Carr, Les Payne, Jimmy Breslin, Mike Barnickle and anyone else who writes an op ed piece. There's a difference between a commentator--what these partisan guys were/are--and a reporter.

Arno Posted November 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Why anyone's surprised at this is beyond me. I don't think anyone's surprised that he's partisan. I even said up above that he told us what we already knew. The surprise comes from him being so candid about it. He removed any pretense there might've been. By the way, I agree that by my preferred definition, he doesn't come close to being referred to as a journalist. ______________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
