Lies Of The Moonie Times

One of the Washington Times' most respected drunken grab-asses journalists is making a fool of himself in print as well as at parties.

In Friday's web edition of the Moonie rag, reporter Steve Miller had a front-page story headlined

DNC says minorities' firing was a mistake

Reading the article, however, it was clear than no one but Miller was saying the employees were terminated. A more sober report in the Washington Post that DNC officials discussed layoffs but "has not made any decisions on who it might dismiss and when."

On today's date, Miller all but admitted his earlier article was a lie. Today's hed:

DNC layoff plan draws new fire

In that article, Miller admits that no one had been terminated and no layoffs would occur. Miller did not correct his earlier lie that employees had been "fir[ed]" and "terminated."

Miller is lucky he wasn't fired for his drunken antics, and should polish up his own resume. I suggest a one-page marker on cardboard format, reading: "Will peddle G.O.P. lies for beer."
