Andrew Breitbart is offering $100,000 for anyone who can provide the entire JournoList archive:
I’ve had $100,000 burning in my pocket for the last three months and I’d really like to spend it on a worthy cause. So how about this: in the interests of journalistic transparency, and to offer the American public a unique insight in the workings of the Democrat-Media Complex, I’m offering $100,000 for the full “JournoList” archive, source fully protected. Now there’s an offer somebody can’t refuse.
Yes, the mainstream media that came together to play up the false allegations that the “N-Word” was hurled 15 times by Tea Party participants at the Congressional Black Caucus outside the Capitol the day before the “Obamacare” vote, is the same MSM that colluded to make sure the American public accepted the smear, and refused to show the exculpatory videos that disproved the incendiary charges of Tea Party racism.
Ezra Klein’s “JournoList 400” is the epitome of progressive and liberal collusion that conservatives, Tea Partiers, moderates and many independents have long suspected and feared exists at the heart of contemporary American political journalism. Now that collusion has been exposed when one of the weakest links in that cabal, Dave Weigel, was outed. Weigel was, in all likelihood, exposed because – to whoever the rat was who leaked his emails — he wasn’t liberal enough.

It’s almost as if you have to be a spy to succeed — interesting to think about at the same time the 10 Russian spies were revealed: living among us.

When Briebart is buying, virtue is for sale — he thinks. What a pig.

Just because you’re paranoid, it doesn’t mean they’re not out to get you.

You would think that people who expose things for a living would know better than to put thoughts onto a computer, particularly a computer not under their control, and think that those thoughts would never get out.

It’s one thing to foolishly believe that comments made on a private listserv won’t be leaked. It’s another thing to offer 100K to get your hands on private conversations so that you can sift through them to find things to “expose” people about.
The first is naive. The second is unseemly, unethical, and disgusting.

I think there is a big difference between ‘exposing’ and ‘reporting’ on an issue. Mike Hunt captures what this act really is: unethical and disgusting.
