A Million little Pieces Redux

TheTruth Out story by Jason Leopold about Karle Rove's indictment has turned out to be just that a "story." More fiction than the fact it was reported to be, Leopold got everyone's hopes up for a perp walk and what many would consider Fitzmas in May.

So Leopold either lied or was misled. In any event his credibility is now nil and he has caused great embarassment to the truthout website.

Read what the The Washington Post has to say ...
QD will stay off the bandwagon except to say this:
Did Jason Leopold invent a story that may or may not be true to sell more copies of his upcoming bio ala Frey's Million Little Pieces?

Woe Journalism ... Where hast thou gone??

Cheer up, cherie - journalism may yet come back - for sure, some ugly fashions have!
And the wish was clearly father to the man, so to speak. Many of the folks who ran with Leopold's story should have known better...but it should be true!...it must be true!! Soon, perhaps, it will be true! Or perhaps not.
Here's another take, from The Washington Monthly:
