Woodward knows journalism is dead as a profession. What he doesn’t know is the part he played in killing it. Along with Bernstein and the Washington Post, they ran Nixon out of office, not because of his so-called crimes, but because they didn’t like him or his politics. That set the table for relentless attacks on all GOP presidents (and covering for all Democrat presidents).
Thank you, not a Peep throat.
“viewers and readers had been cheated”
How about Donald Trump, whose Presidency was wrecked by partisan scum spewing lies they knew were lies? Was he cheated? How about the members of the public who aren’t communists?
It’s Ike Hotel California. I doubt he left.
You give him far more credit than he deserves.
He was not CIA. He was born in 1943 and went to Yale in 1961 on a ROTC Navy scholarship. He graduate in 1965 and was assigned to the carrier USSWright. He was assigned as the communications officer and got to handle a lot of classified for the onboard admiral as the ship served as an emergency fleet command post. He got out after five years ( in 1971) and got his gig at the Washington Post. The Watergate story broke in his rookie year there.
There’s no time to fit a CIA career or even much field work in all of that short time.
No doubt he lies and pads his resume but the guy is a real poser.

Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman made them look like heroes at the time.
Wikipedia can be edited you know?
Alright. I read this as Woodyard claiming he wasn't guilty of joining in with other media brethren to convict President Trump as a traitor to his nation. Anyone else hear him correcting the press? At best, maybe he isn't guilty of calling for Trump's head on a platter. Did I miss something? I can't for the life of me, remember him ever saying anything about the dossier being phoney. I despise his smug, once-upon a-time-I-was -famous-attitude. He has to be kidding.
Bob is doing CYA.
I feel kind of bad for him, not real bad, but a little bad.
But then again, maybe if he had done his own, independent investigation, rather than relying on hearsay from other sources, who knows what would have happened . . .
Trying to make nice as Trumps lawsuit drops. “Please don’t sue me into oblivion”.
Yes, Senators knew, especially Mark/Warner who was instrumental in publicly pushing the narrative and, worse, took the hot potato dossier info from Dianne Feinstein who touch it with 10 foot pole and was key in spreading those lies. He should be in jail. Now he, along with Marco Rubio, are “outraged” that the intelligence agencies wont give them info on Biden’s documents.
NOW we here from the guy who talks to dead people.
I thought he said it was, “Bigger than Watergate”
