Captain Ed's take - But the blockbuster news from David Gergen isn't so much the corroboration he gave Michelle about Jordan's remarks. He told Michelle that he had been interviewed by the Washington Post about Jordan's comments last week, who then apparently spiked the story.

The only way that the transcript and/or video of this event will come to light is to have it subpoenaed. The only coverage this will get from a media that has desperately kept the lid on Eason's Fables is for Congress to hold hearings on Jordan's allegations at Davos and Portugal last November. We have seen the response of the mainstream media, which has decided that it won't expose one of its own, especially executives that have the ability to hire and fire people. The corruption of our news media has been exposed to the blogosphere, and at this point only open hearings will finally blow the lid off for everyone to see.

UPDATE: Senator Chris Dodd hasn't directly spoken with Michelle Malkin, but she did get this response from his spokesman:

"Senator Dodd was not on the panel but was in the audience when Mr. Jordan spoke. He - like panelists Mr. Gergen and Mr. Frank - was outraged by the comments. Senator Dodd is tremendously proud of the sacrifice and service of our American military personnel."

That's four people who heard it the way Rony Arbovitz reported it, two of them liberal politicians who probably don't have much of an axe to grind against CNN or Eason Jordan.
