Six Stories

Judy Miller says that only six of her stories were based on questionable reporting. I’ll have to remember that. By my count, there are way more than six that are totally full of shit, just in her war reporting (and watch out, because I’m looking back at her famous aluminum tubes story–something to look forward to in 2006). But now I will always look at her stories and wonder whether she considers that particular story one of her flawed six.

"Is this one of the ones that even Judy believes to be beyond the pale? How does Judy Miller judge shit?"

But that’s not why I’m interested in Judy’s recent appearance on Nightline. I’m more interested in a puzzle Jane has raised about Judy’s comments specific to the Plame Affair.
