More on Lou Dobbs and his BS

A couple of weeks ago I blogged about Lou Dobbs's complete lack of veracity during his current anti-immigrant pogrom. Today, the New York Times examines the issue and Dobbs's lack of will when it comes to admitting he was wrong.

Of course, he has never acknowledged on the air that his program presented false information twice. Instead, he lambasted the officials from the law center for saying he had. Even yesterday, he spent much of our conversation emphasizing that there really were 7,000 cases in the leprosy registry, the government’s 30-year database. Mr. Dobbs is trying to have it both ways.

I have been somewhat taken aback about how shameless he has been during the whole dispute, so I spent some time reading transcripts from old episodes of 'Lou Dobbs Tonight.' The way he handled leprosy, it turns out, is not all that unusual.

In other words, Dobbs has a history of shading the truth when gets a target in his sights. Looks like CNN has found a Bill O'Reilly clone after all.
