What, Me Worry?

Eric Shawn of Fox News had an exit interview with Mr. Combover–the Iraqi ambassador to the UN, who’s en route to Syria. He didn’t ask the key question.

“Mr. Ambassador, if you love New York so much, why are you going to Syria? Aren’t you concerned, given what you’ve said in this interview and others in the past few hours, that there may be some members of the regime there who won’t be pleased with your statements?”

OK, CNN

Now that we know how the game is played, please tell us why your reporting from Damascus, or Gaza, or the West Bank (as just three examples) should be given any credibility whatsoever. How much of Arafat and Assad’s thuggish behavior have you been covering up? And if you now propose to tell us, why should we believe you?

In a just and rational world, this should be devastating for the network, but they’ll probably get the usual pass.
