I have little doubt that they would be telling the truth if they denied what Yellin reported last night. People like Williams, Gibson and Gregory don't need to be told to refrain from reporting critically about the war and the White House because challenging Government claims isn't what they do. And amazingly, they admitted that explicitly yesterday. Gibson and Gregory both invoked the cliched excuse of the low-level bureaucrat using almost identical language: exposing government lies 'is not our job'
But with all these complaints coming in that they haven't been criticizing the president enough, you can bet your bippy that soon they will be extremely critical on government conduct, challenging any assertion, no matter how trivial, they make.
When there's a Democrat in the White House, that is.
