Journalistic arrogance personified

It’s not a good day for the Sacramento Bee, as the blog post one of their reporters (Bobby Caina Calvan, from their Baghad bureau) wrote (which looks like its been deleted) about a soldier in Iraq who had never heard of the Knight Ridder news organization, has generated widespread attention for the arrogance it personifies from the MSM. You can read the recaptured, unedited post here, and background on the post here.

Calvan’s faux “bravado” may have earned him high praise from his liberal media colleagues, but from a PR standpoint he’s not doing the MSM any favors with regards to the well-founded belief that the media is comprised primarily of anti-war/anti-military agenda-driven journalists.
