Editor tells Feebies "On yer bike."
CNN reported on Tuesday that when the FBI asked Seattle newspapers and televisions stations to run photographs of two dark-haired men, taken by the captain of a Seattle ferry who considered their behavior suspicious, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer refused.
The refusal, which was defended by Managing Editor David McCumber in his blog at the paper, was quickly painted as a major transgression by Fox News, Michelle Malkin, and right-wing blogs.
McCumber joined CNN's John Roberts to explain his decision.
"We felt that suspicion is not evidence and that homeland security isn't just a blanket reason to deviate from our usual standards," McCumber stated. Raw Story
