Why I avoid ABC News’s web site

Not just because it’s just another alphabet group of Democrat political stenographers and propagandists pretending to be objective journalists, but because it’s one of those sites (and there are others) where an embedded video/audio immediately cuts on without my say so.

They also make it hard to figure out how to turn the damn thing off. As Instapundit says, what we need is a browser that alerts us to this crap before it happens and allows us to turn it off with one easy-to-find click.

The gang that can’t think straight

The porous CIA, the gang that can’t think straight, either is handing out secrets to their favorite reporters to make political hay, or this is a lie. Either way, it may get some Americans killed, as the outraged commenters note. ABC news, of course, couldn’t care less, so long as it can sell advertising.

UPDATE  Power Line, which I see the Left likes to call "Power Tool," thinks Bush could have had this "leak" made on purpose, for his own reasons, but Republican prez candidate Romney is incensed.

Which to believe?

One or the other? Or neither? ABC News finds cheering troops for a visiting President Bush, post-surge speech, at my old alma mater Fort Benning. While the NYTimes finds "a restrained response" at the same occasion. Only ABC is playing against type, which might be a clue. Or not. Read what you like, but be careful what you believe. Things are never what they seem.
