2. It would be nice to wait and post when the article is actually there

RS always does this - Headlines do nothing besides help in building rumors. Lets wait for facts.

31. So, are you saying nobody else uses "Breaking News" teasers?....

Have you watched CNN or MSNBC lately?

33. Are you comparing DU and yourself to MSNBC and CNN?

I thought not - DU should try to rise above hype from 24 hr news dribble, and post full complete articles so that people will have something concrete to discuss and not just rumored speculation.

BTW - I think RS is an awesome source and I am grateful for the countless hours they spend in the field for news such as this even though some people here think otherwise.

Peace

3. Raw Story has let us down many times

"Oh, oh! One of Dick Cheney's aides left the country."

4. I like Rawstory and in my experience they are MUCH MORE OFTEN right

than not. I posted it for what it was -- a breaking, developing headline with a clear ID of where it was coming from. No apologies.

7. This is RawHeadline...doesn't belong in LBN

It belongs in something like a "Unsubstantiated Titillating Gossip" forum.

11. They are going to post it within the next 5 minutes but given your

sentiments, I am sure you don't care what it says. Well, I do.

8. These are the same guys who said indictments would

be filed last week.

Their track record on accuracy is very suspect.

24. There were thousands of MSM papers that said we'd find WMD's

in Iraq. We still post from them.

Why do posters make broadbased criticisms of RawStory rather than specific, relavent facts or inaccuracies? I don't get it. They aren't substantially less accurate than any other news source that's trying to stay ahead of the news curve. It's much safer to just reprint the formula news from the AP, but who wants that?

18. Well, it is a decent..

... rehash of recent and past events. I've always felt like Rove was not out of the woods, that Fitz is not the kind of person to seek an indictment without having his ducks in a row.

So I don't really see this as big news, but there are a couple tidbits there. We'll see.

Quite often, but not always, they're on target. They're usually a good indication about what's in the pipeline. And most of their stuff is links to other sources.

21. Rove at the very least should be indicted for perjury

And what happen to Bush's promise that anyone involved would be dismissed?

22. msnbc last night on Harball reported Fitz considering V.Novak testimony

and will SOON decide on Rove's indictment. First Fitz interviewed her, then he came back and took testimony under oath.

Maybe this is why * is taking reporters' questions lately without screening them beforehand. Rover's a bit out of sorts or out of commission.

27. No new info there that I can see

Rove's defense is 'I forgot'? I hope so.

32. Rove is Toast!!!

Fitz held back from indicting the Turd because he felt their were loose ends. Buh bye pig boy. Thanks for F*n up my country you sniveling megalomaniac.

34. Looks like a strong case for obstruction of justice

and destroying evidence, too.

I know they've been able to subpoena documents, but have investigators gotten access to WH computers?

35. They might be

I remember reading awhile back that Fitz's office was trying to get the hard drive repaired of a computer they seized to look for more evidence. I'll see if I can find the link again.

36. No Raw Story for me right now...

I'd rather have my news well done, thank you. I'd rather wait than be disappointed again. I was kinda hoping for more than just Scooter earlier.
