Arnett Back In Business

March 31, 2003 Posted by John at 7:37 PM

Anti-American "war correspondent" Peter Arnett lost no time after being fired by MSNBC. He is now working for London's Daily Mirror, a viciously anti-American and anti-war tabloid.

Arnett "apologized" for his support of the Baath party line earlier today, but his apology was transparently insincere. Now he says "I report the truth of what is happening here in Baghdad and will not apologise for it." Arnett is a sick person; he and his patron Saddam Hussein are well matched. No serious person has paid attention to Arnett since he fabricated a story that falsely accused the U.S. Army of using the nerve gas sarin in Laos, which cost him his job with CNN some years ago.
