CNN's Michael Ware FLATLY denies heckling McCain at press conf yesterday

...he addressed the charges leveled at him by the Drudge Report. Speaking on CNN's American Morning, he said he never even asked a single question - when he raised his hand to ask one, they abruptly ended the press conference.

As always, Drudge has it wrong...:eyes:

1. Drudge is like an abusive spouse. People just keep going back to him in the hopes that he's telling

the truth *this time*. And, of course, he lies again.

2. I bet the * misadministration is working behind the scenes to get Ware fired

due to his hard-hitting and honest reporting from Iraq.

3. but will the fact that he didn't hecle make the news?

therein lies the problem -- drudge reports that ware heckled -- a big to do is made of it -- and there it stops.

little more will be said about it -- and it's really very important.

4. Ware, of all reporters. is THE source for finding out what is going on in Iraq.

The BA is stating not to like him, which means he is getting to the truth.

If CNN fires him, he can always work at BBC.

7. K&R. Michael Ware knows the truth on the ground in Iraq.

He's the one in the MSM that we can depend on for an accurate depiction about what's really going on there...:grr:

11. Things like "truth" and "facts" don't stop the RW machine

Wasn't it Reagan that said "facts are stubborn things"?

15. That was in one of Reagan's few lucid moments.

Towards the end of his presidency he was more prone to comments along the lines of, "Mommy, the tarantulas ate my Oscar!"

17. I thought so...The "heckling" has never even been detailed. Just announced.

Like McCain will gain any credibility now!
