Ohh Judy, You Are Incorrugable

A new report reveals that Judy Miller may have been slow enough to file her story with the Times so that it missed the first printings. Ohh, Judy, what are we going to do with you? You are as respectable as the Vice President (and his cronies) you are covering for. When asked why she didn't get her story in on time, Miller replied that she "didn't think" the report was late and that the tardiness was due to reasons "I could not recall".

NYT: Miller's Delays Made Story Miss Deadline

It didn't take 85 days, but Judith Miller was slow enough to cooperate with the New York Times team reporting on her case that some readers ended up missing the paper's long-awaited Miller coverage on Oct. 16.

The paper's two-story Sunday package--a 5,800-word account of Miller's role in the Valerie Plame affair and Miller's own first-person tale of her conversations with vice-presidential chief of staff I. Lewis (Scooter) Libby--missed the deadline to be included in the bulldog edition, 100,000 copies distributed nationally...

Bulldog edition? My god, they've got Jeff Gannon working for the Times now? Well, they probably should hire him, I suppose. He's about as real a reporter as Judy Miller. And they've both been in bed (maybe literally in Gannon's case) with the White House. Sweet dreams, Judy.
