Kurtz Finally Reports on Eason Jordan Flap

By Bob Kohn

Howard Kurtz finally filed his long-awaited report on the controversy surrounding comments that CNN News Chief Eason Jordan may or may not have made in Davos, Switzerland last week regarding whether the U.S. military deliberately killed journalists in Iraq. There's a whole new blog on the subject (hat tip: Rathergate.com).

Possible reason for Kurtz's foot-dragging on the story? Mickey Kaus suggests Kurtz's conflict of interest--he's on the payroll of CNN for his show, Reliable Sources. It's getting nasty.

AFTERTHOUGHT: Are we witnessing a war between the mainstream media watchdogs and and the alternative media watchdogs? I'd call it a struggle, but one the mainstream media critics will lose. We've watched the Howie Kurtz's and so-called newspaper ombudsmen of the world circle the wagons for their liberal brethren once too often.
