Kurtz

Today in Pravda, Howie Kurtz basically quotes all of Dick Morris´s little screed about Hillary and his claims that Bill Clinton beat him up. He then links to Joe Conason´s column in Salon, stating that he "challenges Morris´s account," without quoting any of it.

Conason doesn´t challenge Morris´s account - what he does is point out the fact that Morris HIMSELF is contradicting his previous stories.

Email Kurtz at kurtzh@washpost.com and ask him why in a column from a media critic it´s more important to display in full accusations of Clinton´s violence than the fact that the accuser himself has contradicted those claims in the past
