Judith Miller is AFM

Read another article today about Judith Miller, the New York Times reporter that is in the middle of the Valerie Plame controversy and the f'ing moron whose shoddy reporting, high falutin', and completely wrong articles on Iraq's certain weapons of mass destruction had great effect on convincing Americans invading a country that proposed no imminent threat, killing thousands of US troops and tens of thousands of Iraqi civilians in the process, was a good idea.

Today her smiling mug appears in an AP article on Yahoo News about the CIA leak:

WASHINGTON - The New York Times' Judith Miller belatedly gave prosecutors her notes of a key meeting in the CIA leak probe only after being shown White House records of it, and her boss declared Friday she appeared to have misled the newspaper about her role.

In a dramatic e-mail, Executive Editor Bill Keller wrote Times' employees he wished he'd more carefully interviewed Miller and had "missed what should have been significant alarm bells" that she had been the recipient of leaked information about the CIA officer at the heart of the case.

"Judy seems to have misled (Times Washington bureau chief) Phil Taubman about the extent of her involvement," Keller wrote in what he described as a lessons-learned e-mail. "This alone should have been enough to make me probe deeper."


This woman makes me ill.
