PRESTOPUNDIT -- A Good Blog at a Great Price. Guaranteed.

LAST NIGHT THE LA TIMES broke with the Swift Boaters story -- I went to bed, Patterico wrote this: "Christmas in Cambodia Story Hits the L.A. Times". Highly recommended.

And BeldarBlog does a righteous fisking here.

Hugh Hewitt: "I didn't expect much from the Los Angeles Times' coverage of Kerry's Kurtz Chronicles. In fact, I didn't expect any coverage at all, So today's full frontal defense of Kerry is sort of a half-win, even though it could have been drafted by Kerry staff."

InstaPundit has spot on commentary and good clips & links here. Hmmm. Wonder if Glenn might be a PrestoPundit reader?

Well, I certainly read him -- more from Roger Simon via InstaPundit. Quotable:

the LA Times has finally lumbered forth like a dinosaur to report on the Kerry/Veterans controversy. Don't expect much. It's a dull and superficial article, more place holding than reporting, which, as Instapundit points out, doesn't even acknowledge that the Kerry campaign has already backtracked on the Senator's peculiar Cambodia claims. Perhaps the Times' reporters weren't aware of this, but more likely I have the wrong "animal analogy." The Times is not a dinosaur or a mammoth, but a camel... as in a camel is a horse designed by a committee ... because this article, which emphasizes the Swift Veterans ad even though a full foot-noted book is available, reads as if it were rewritten and hacked over by a group of editors until all the life was beaten out of it.
