Tell The Boston Globe: FIRE Reporter Mike Kranish for Conflict of Interest (Swift Vets)
Drudge ^

Posted on 08/06/2004 11:24:45 AM PDT by jmstein7

If you haven’t heard yet, read the following from Drudge:

 

BOSTON GLOBE 'REPORTER' PAID TO WRITE CAMPAIGN BOOK FORWARD WHILE COVERING KERRY

BOSTON GLOBE reporter Mike Kranish made waves on Friday by reporting "a key figure in the anti-Kerry campaign, Kerry's former commanding officer, backed off one of the key contentions."

But Captain George Elliott claims the Kranish article is "extremely inaccurate" and highly misstated his actual views.

Oddly, journalist Kranish has been commissioned to write the forward of the official Kerry-Edwards campaign book -- just as he is covering the campaign in an official capacity as a journalist for the
BOSTON GLOBE!

 

This conflict of interest is outrageous!  This is a plain case of journalistic malpractice. 

Call and email the Globe today – tell them to remove Kranish from the campaign coverage and/or FIRE him!

Only RWers are biased. The radical left is well trained to lie about their views and claim to be unbias.

What's that about? Is the guy saying he was misquoted?

Didn't the Boston Globe also publish the obviously false GI-Rape photos?

Rush just said that he just got word that the publisher has withdrawn the book from publication. I guess they will revise it without the forward.

Thanks for the update!

I can't say that I'm surprised at this development.

I suppose that their masters and overlords over at the "Old Gray Lady" have finally pulled in the reins on their BAAAHHHHSTON counterparts.
