Bill Keller on New York Times' David Rohde's Taliban Escape
June 21, 2009 11:31 AM
New York Times Executive Editor Bill Keller joined me on our "This Week" Roundtable this morning.
He told us about New York Times reporter David Rohde's harrowing escape from the Taliban after a seven month kidnapping ordeal:

Keller the killer. What a classic and dangerous hypcrite.
How many men and women who serve our country have been put at risk, or have died because of Keller's Cabal and their pathologically driven Jihad on the Bush administration?
For the socialist elite, national security takes a back seat to taking care of one of their own.
It's so ironic too; the first thing to go when they get their hard-earned socialist government will be the 1st Amendment.

Keller takes it upon himself to cover up the news when it serves the Times.
His reporter's kidnapping is news...report it.
Would they do the same for the abduction of a US soldier? Doubtful.
The New York Times lies by omission.

One of Kellers own is in danger..his mantra is "dont divulge". But publish material that would hurt our men and women in uniform...thats different...thats news we need to know!
The joke of a poll he spoke of on the show ..showing americans will agree to pay more taxes for state run health care had just one important omission..those polled overwhelmingly voted for Obama. And you wonder why the main street media cant be trusted..cmon George that was laughable!

I don't know exactly how you poll or who you poll, but I wish you would stop saying that Americans or all Americans in some instances, want more government or higher taxes. You never polled myself or my husband, who has been cut back to 4 days a week, after 22 years, and makes under 50k. What we want is change for the better, not things that are going to cost us more money in taxes or even the thought of losing our home. Washington wake up!!!

The New York times had the good sense to shut up when certain info would endanger their reporter. To bad they wouldn't do the same for the rest of America.
