The truth

No economy from David Pugliese of the Ottawa Citizen in describing a certain bĂȘte noire around here: "...left-wing defence commentator Steve Staples."

More here--and on another bĂȘte noire our media love to quote.

ohhhh to have FOI access to the Ottawa Citizen editorial meetings and Mr. Pugliese's notes . . . now that would be a gold mine of information about how the media torques & spins so they can hyperventilate the story.

Because its not about telling the story with facts. Facts don't sell advertising space. Hype & innuendo sells space.

ergo Mr Pugliese and all of his ilk and all of his favorite "military experts".

A pox on all their houses.
