The New York Times
The Washington Post
The Los Angeles Times
and
The Huffington Post
and the gist of it was they all gave it rave reviews. Huffington Post was mentioned last, but on the screen it visually came up in the middle of them all.
Now the only reason I payed any attention at all was the mention of The Huffington Post as something to, presumably, be taken as seriously as we're supposed to take those other established (and notoriously progressive) big names.
Like I said, I saw it was for a movie, but they didn't say what it was about and I only saw a man and a woman... a blonde, behind the title, "Fair Game".
I asked aloud "did that say 'The Huffington Post'?" The wife re-wound the recording. Yup. It did. And we went back to our show. I was curious as to why that name was being thrown in the middle, especially in light of the fact that Soros granted them money for "investigative" reporters. Almost as if they're subtly trying to legitimize it in the eyes of Mainstream America.
And then I wondered, somwhere at the edge of my mind ... what is this movie about that they're all raving about.... and I flashed to the couple. I'd bet it was Valerie Plame and Joe Wilson. What was the name of that movie again? The wife re-wound again, and we read "Fair Game".
Yup, that has to be it. They want to make their version of the story the story of record in the minds of mainstream America.
I wonder if Rove has horns and a pitchfork in the movie?
