I have a different feeling about Libby. His "perjury"--not telling the truth about which reporters he talked to--would never be considered significant enough to reach trial, much less sentencing, much less time in stir if he weren't Dick Cheney's hatchet man. ...
But jail time? Do we really want to spend our tax dollars keeping Scooter Libby behind bars? I don't think so. This "perjury" case only exists because of his celebrity.

"Journalist?" Please define.
Good idea.
Bierce provides a good start. He defines a reporter as "A writer who guesses his way to the truth and dispels it with a tempest of words." And he defines truth as "an ingenious compound of desirability and appearance."
How about: an aspiring novelist whose day job consists in finding news and burying it under narrative devices?
Good day! This post couldn't be written any better! Reading this post reminds me of my good old room mate! He always kept chatting about this. I will forward this page to him. Fairly certain he will have a good read. Many thanks for sharing!

Howdy! This is kind of off topic but I need some
guidance from an established blog. Is it very difficult to set up your own
blog? I'm not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast. I'm thinking about
setting up my own but I'm not sure where to start. Do you have any tips or suggestions? Many thanks
