I would certainly like a list of the stories this guy fabricated.

I will bet he isn't the only reporter who does that. I have repeatedly questioned the "unnamed sources" that the Times is so fond of using.

As I suspected, some unnamed sources are figments of the writer's imagination.

The free weekly paper, The Washington City Paper, has a really good follow-up on Jayson's lying, focusing primarily on the crap he put out during the Maryland sniper story.

Unnamed sources are a biased journalist's best device for slanting the news.

Used properly to protect a whistleblower or witness to a crime, the unnamed source can be of great service to the public. However their usage has been totally abused and needs to be reined in. We need to keep harping on that, because journalists and their editors won't stop abusing it unless held accountable.

"Sources say..." Yeah, the sources floating around in the NY Times reporters' imaginations. Believe me, Blair isn't the only reporter there making up sources. It is a common NY Times practice.

One of those stories he made up was the one about the government stopping the D.C. sniper from confessing.

Right on you posted: I have repeatedly questioned the "unnamed sources" that the Times is so fond of using.

So many of their opeds and vile swipes at our president, rummy or SOS Powell are filled with these unnamed sources who just happen to regurgitate the Slimes's latest lie about GW.

They all remind me of the Yeti that Woodward used for his Nixon lies, the Yeti called Deepthroat!
