Via TBOGG, I see that Andrew Sullivan is striking a blow for journalistic standards everywhere:
"Here's an extract from a letter from a soldier out there doing God's work in putting back together a ravaged country. It was posted on Free Republic, but it seems genuine to me."
In other words: "Here's something I picked up off a right-wing message board that feels like something I wanna believe, so read the whole thing."
I wonder what things would be like if our entire press corps operated under the "Gee, that seems genuine to me" standard of factual reporting?
On second thought, maybe I don't wonder that....
