Michael Gordon and the Times Pour Pentagon Poison into Nation’s Ear
Chris Floyd, Atlantic Free Press, 6 May 2008
Judith Miller might have been the poster child for the corporate media’s collaboration with the Bush Administration’s war of aggression against Iraq — but her New York Times colleague and co-writer, Michael Gordon, was every bit as culpable and complicit, happily playing stovepipe to the bloodthirsty bullshit gurgling up from the White House and Pentagon cesspits.
Miller is gone from the mainstream heights, but Gordon soldiers on at the Times — literally. Although he is probably not paid directly by the Bush Regime to peddle their propaganda, he serves precisely the same function as the military brass that the Administration embedded as “independent analysts” on the network news shows — a nefarious practice most recently exposed in great detail by…the New York Times.
