William Kristol may need another 'pieing'...

[Al-CIAda]

After GOP source of Schiavo memo was confirmed, Hume, Kristol failed to acknowledge their roles in suggesting Democrats had authored it

After Sen. Mel Martinez (R-FL) admitted that one of his aides was the author of a "talking points" memo that described the Terri Schiavo case as a "great political issue" for Republicans, neither Fox News Washington managing editor Brit Hume nor Weekly Standard editor William Kristol acknowledged their own role, or the role of their organizations, in advancing false speculation that Democrats created the memo.

On both the "Grapevine" and "All-Star Panel" segments of the April 7 edition of Fox News' Special Report with Brit Hume, Hume discussed the memo without acknowledging his own role in advancing the false accusation that Democrats had secretly authored it. Similarly, although Kristol did not personally question the authenticity of the memo, he discussed the issue on Special Report without noting that the Standard had run two articles -- including one by executive editor and Fox News contributor Fred Barnes -- pushing the same false speculation.

4. You know what I wonder about Media Matters?

Who, over there, is assigned to watch faux news 24 hours a day? That is a terrible job! I admire their work very much, but euuuwwww.
