Gregory: Blogs are to blame for polarization.



Thinkprogress:




At a National Press Club event earlier this week, NBC White House correspondent David Gregory argued that, because is so much polarization in politics today, “people try to divine or assign our motives” for asking certain questions at the White House press briefings. When Helen Thomas asked Gregory what was responsible for the polarization, Gregory answered:


I think it’s because of the internet largely. The polarized atmosphere in the internet and blogs and whatnot have been a major contributor to that.

David has worked hard for the GOP for 6 years and been an insider even covering up the crimes of the White House. Yes the famous dance with Karl Rove proved his loyalty. Now NBC is cleaning house and starting with Tucker. Tweety, David, Andrea and Lisa are on the list to go. David was once one of the most fair/balanced reporters until he sold out to the corrupt White House, it's been down hill since then. Brian Williams got so much bad mail about David's part in the dance and how Karl tried to embarrass Pat Fitzgerald, Brian asked David to read the comments. David told Brian he was forced that was his excuse which no body was buying it. Now David is up set because people are telling the truth about him and the NBC Executives are reading it.

David has done such a great job of spreading the White House lies maybe he can get the job of White House Press Secretary before Bush's term is over. Friends should take care of friends as they did with Wolfie.

Wow, Helen Thomas has so much class that Gregory didn't even get it that she gave him the smack down by asking her question.

Asking a question is the most polite way to criticize someone's stupid idea.
