Jamil Hussein Controversy in U.S. News and World Report
The Jamil Hussein controversy is in U.S. News & World Report (at least online!), in a brief paragraph that quotes Jules Crittenden’s column on the subject.
Crittenden is a valuable ally to bloggers trying to bring issues to the attention of Big Media. You should be reading his blog daily.


i don’t trust either the u.s. military or the associated press, and i don’t have enough reliable information to determine who, exactly, jamil hussein is.
“you should be reading his blog daily”
i have a fairly demanding life in “meatspace” which precludes me from reading absolutely everything in cyberspace.

AP’s credibility is on the line, and the issue is being surfaced in a few more MSM outlets every day. AP’s ability to ignore it’s professional obligation to provide open and forthright verification for the Burning Six story has about run its course. It’s time for the AP to put the evidence on the table, nothing else will do.

This whole situation with Jamil Hussein and the A(wt)P seems to be another case of GHBP [Green Helmet's Blue Pacifier]

Here’s a pretty horrifying article I saw in the Guardian today:

Difficult to believe, but apparently it’s pretty well-documented. Haven’t heard about it before. Coverup, anyone?

But you trust some guy with an Iraqi area code? If he even has that.

Apologies to ADA. I misread his post. My response in not appropriate.

I hope everyone isn’t holding their breathe until the ASSociated (with terrorists) Press admits they have duped the American, no make that worlds, people for the past three years. BDS had progressed to insanity in most of the antique MSM. Conservative Bloggers will feret out the liars. Liberal bloggers are hiding under their rocks.
