Well, if that isn’t the kettle calling the pot black.

These people don’t vet anything. They cheat; lie and make everything up as they go along while blaming everyone else for doing what they are doing.

They are the ones that are killing the truth.

This is the arrogance that we've all come to expect from the MSM. It's not newsworthy unless they say it is. They're starting to realize that they are irrelevant.

All the handwringing, all the criticism of the presentation, all the questioning of the credentials of those doing the online reporting...

...but no disputing of the facts.

That’s pretty funny - Brokaw saying “you have to vet information.” Just like the news crews vetted anything that obama has said or done from day one? Or when they picked up rumors about Sarah Palin directly from Kos and Huffington AS FACT? It’s too late. They’ve lost their audience and lost their credibility and it’s kind of fun to watch them try to act like they’re taking the high road now.

Tom Brokaw: "It's frightening, frankly."

Frankly, Tom, it is VERY frightening that a radical racist, Communist puke like Jones could be hired in the first place.

This kind of stuff just makes you wonder what people got away with in the past without the internet and these TV schmucks holding back information.

Brokaw......”you need to vett information”,,,,yep, tell that to obama pal.

Vetting information is one of the things that Free Republic does best. We are on pretty strong ground after the internet rumors have gone a few rounds here on good ol' FR.

Agreed. The sewer of misinformation was the discussion on that panel.

Tom Brokaw is just mad that the internet provided the PROOF of the Trush of what was the avenda of Van Jones. His OWN WORDS THAT HE SPOKE were the sewer that skewered him; nothing on the internet per se.

I make time to watch the Sunday Morning talking heads to see how they will mangle the news. Weekly, they confirm that they are still pathetic. I rely on FOX and internet for true news reporting. That is why this Mark Lloyd “diversity czar” needs to apply to work at the Chavez administration.

On this subject, here's a great quote from Jonah Goldberg re: Brokaw

Van Jones & Obama's "Centrism" (Jonah Goldberg)… The Corner ^ | 6 September 2009 | Jonah Goldberg

“……………Update: Oh and the conversation between Tom Brokaw and Tom Friedman about the lessons of Van Jones was a complete scandal. One of Friedman's key take-aways from this whole affair is that too many people will self-censor themselves so they can get government jobs. What a tragedy that fewer people will support cop-killers and anti-American conspiracy groups because of poor Van Jones chilling effect on the culture.

Oh, and listening to Friedman and Brokaw disparage the internet as a useless news medium, makes them sound like cranky old monks lamenting that flash-in-the-pan printing press.”

It’s absolutely amazing isn’t it. These people have no shame whatsoever, they still think they can lie etc. and no one is going to find out about it, that may have been the case years ago but not anymore, everything is out there for everyone to see, plain and simple and it’s about time we started showing them what we know about them, one commie down, several more to go, who shall be next........czar #1?, czar #16?? We need to keep up the pressure, soooooooooo many commies, soooooo little time............

Brokaw wouldn't know a news story if it bit him on the butt!

Thank God for FR and for the genuine INTERNET REPORTERS who are reporting on the news stories the cowards in the State Run Media refuse to run because they are either affraid of being labled "racists" or because they are afraid to lose their cushy jobs or because they are genuinly affraid for their and their families physical safety (this is the Obamessiah from Kenya, Chicago THUG administration we are talking about.) or lastly because their noses are so far up Obama;s butt they can no longer smell or see a story even if it is right in front of them =

Van Jones, the avowed communist, socialist, Marxist, 9/11 "truther" who hates America and white people and who SAID in print and on video that he wants to destroy the American system and rebuild it into a communist black racist "utopia"! All of this information was available and out there for ANY state run media journalist to see and report on, BUT THEY ALL REFUSED. So we, along with Glenn Beck and others are doing their job for them and they have the unmitigated gaull to call our reporting an "Open Sewer of Disinformation"!

Thank God Brokaw is no longer on TV, the man is a buffoon!
