2. All I can say is I don't have control over teasers
John just likes that. I don't, so don't hold it against me. :)

6. I've Got No Problem W/ It
No one's forcing anyone to pay attention to the teasers, and honestly, it's damn good PR. It's smart. So what if it pisses people off? No one's making them click.

13. Do you love your job or what?
It seems so cool. What is an average day like. Where do you get your stories. Did you work in journalism before. Did you go to school for journalism? It'd be a dream job for me. (I'm a computer programmer - can't get much more boring than that!)

16. No, actually, I don't love it... more like love-hate relationship...
Cons:

1). No sleep
2). Not good money
3). People try to discredit you on all sides
4). People demand that you tell them things, when you say that you cannot, they end up hating you
5). People try to use you for information, usually fail, but try over and over
6). You end up on gov. enemy list and the right wing hate list
7). You get harassed
8). You are dying to tell about a story you are working on, but cannot and it drives you crazy
9). The very people who respect what you do demand that you violate all ethics and tell them "how you know" what you know
10). You never get to spend time with friends, family, and so forth

Pros:

1). You get a sense of excitement when you find a needle in haystack
2). Your own curiosity makes this fascinating
3). You meet really amazing people
4). Some people appreciate your efforts and that is a plus
5). You get to meet your heroes and go ga ga over them

20. At least everyone but the trolls, lol...
Seems they have moved to DKos to proclaim that we reported Fitz would hand down 18 indictments and that we are always wrong and not credible. One would think that someone at DKos might figure out that a set of trolls have wet their pants and went over to dry them out there... go figure. In any case, per my "cons" list above, check out this thread:

http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2005/11/16/161111/38

This is one reason I don't like my job and this is why the left gets the MSM, the one we have now, because it is unwilling to support fully its free press.

Blah!

and thanks you guys:)

9. I always wonder whether or not Wolfowitz figures somewhere into this leak.
He was very invested idealogically in going into Iraq and instrumental in causing it to happen, now is safely(?) ensconced at the World Bank. I guess he would be identified as a senior Pentagon official or could he still qualify as a senior administration official.
