Outting Time: Exposing a Conservative Source is a Coup not a Sacrifice.
By N. Beaujon
July 2, 2005
The second that Time Magazine's spokesman launched into his sanctimonious press conference to dutifully explained how, as a publicly traded corporation, they had to abide by the rule of law and give up their source, I knew their ?Deep Throat? was likely Karl Rove and, most assuredly, a Republican. Liberals care nothing about the rule of law as they proved time and again during Watergate, the Pentagon Papers and countless other calculated leaks designed to bring down our government. Each time they refused to cough up their sources. Threatened with jail, these treacherous martyrs pontificated about how they would rather languish in prison than give up the weighty principles of the great Fourth Estate. Oh, what an enormous crucible the American media has been forced to bear. The fact that they have no principles whatsoever except to bring down conservatives seems to be presently lost on, at least, half the population. For them to act as if they are making some heroic concession to respectable law is a farce unworthy of even the most simple-minded plot line. To allow them to gain any political or moral capitol from this charade would be an even greater crime than their trading in their non-existent principles to comply with a contempt order.
Valerie Plume is a traitor and the fact that Karl Rove or someone high up in the Bush Administration chose to lay down with these junkyard dogs in order to do her in shows such an extreme lack of judgment you have to wonder what they were thinking. The Time worn principle (no pun intended) that if you lay down with dogs you get fleas seems to be lost on conservatives. Why would you leak a story like this to a New York Times or Time magazine reporter? You might was well just commit hari-kari. It?s a lot less messy and a damn sight more dignified.
The fact is that Time magazine has never found a law that it wouldn?t break. Witness their lawless and fraud ridden merger with American On-Line. If anyone thinks that this corporate entity is concerned with the rule of law they are clearly unaware of the frauds perpetrated on their investors in the regular cooking of their books, the inflating of their subscriber numbers, fudging their revenue statistics and, generally, creating one of the worst accounting scams of the ?90s. But, on their supposed most fundamental moral code, protecting media sources, they have found it inconvenient to continue to stand on ceremony.
