Conservative Pundits and TV Journalists(?) Still Liars

Contrary to what a couple righty bloggers have said, I say that Tim Cuprisin hit it right on the head regarding TMJ4 reporter John Mercure's blog comments. Here is an example of the original post by Mercure (from Cuprisin's article)...
In a Feb. 28 posting (since removed) about a convicted sex offender, Mercure
wrote: "This sick loser should be castrated . . . or strung up." His post,
with 28 exclamation points, features big, bold capital letters proclaiming
that "THERE IS A COZY PLACE IN A DARK CORNER OF HELL" for the offender.
It's juuuust a little over the top...especially coming from a journalist(?). Obviously TMJ4 thought so too because the post was later replaced with this.

What compounds the problem is the blatant lie Mercure is caught in when he leads people to believe that the original post never happened by telling people to check out what Charlie Sykes thought of his post...never mentioning that Sykes was commenting about the original.

Of course, Sykes is involved in the coverup as well as he provides a link to the new post, not the original. What a surprise.
