| EFL - and for lighter bitterness In her first interview since being fired, former CBS News producer Mary Mapes maintains that her controversial "60 Minutes II" story on President Bush's National Guard service was "true" and that "no one has proved that the documents were not authentic." "true" and "authentic" are so "subjective" Mapes was fired after an independent panel found her basic reporting was "faulty." as in "bad" "wrong" "fookin' stoopid" In her interview with ABC News chief investigative correspondent Brian Ross, to be broadcast Wednesday morning on "Good Morning America," Mapes says she is unrepentant about her role. "I don't think I committed bad journalism. I really don't," she says. "I mean, c'mon! Look at the 'journalism' that's out there now? How can you say mine's worse?" |

| #6 Pathetic fool. Her Vanity Fair piece was an equally bitter and infantile attempt at justifying extremely poor judgment, thinly veiled hatred (FEA baby), and gross incompetence. What a nasty, ignorant, POS. |

| #5 "I don't think I committed bad journalism." Committed? A curious choice to use a verb usually followed by the name of a criminal act. Freudian slip? Or maybe 'journalism' just doesn't mean what we think it means. |

| #1 Crazy people don't know they are crazy. Someone she respects (whomever that is) has to tell her that she is whacked. But then I think that most of the LLL is crazed and deserve all the bad press they get. |
