Why Is The Wall Street Journal Giving Karl Rove A Free Ride?

Former House of Bush consigliere and current GOP gunsel Karl Rove has two day jobs:

1)  Co-founder of Super PAC American Crossroads and 501(c)4 Crossroads GPS (for the difference see here);

2) Weekly columnist for the Wall Street Journal.

(Oh, yes – and one night job at Fox News.)

But the Journal never mentions Rove’s connection to Crossroads’ multimillion dollar ad campaigns attacking Democratic lawmakers nationwide. It simply tags him as “the former senior adviser and deputy chief of staff to President George W. Bush.”

Not kosher, Journalniks. Not kosher at all.

  1. Wow. A dog bites man headline if there ever was one!
    For the WSJ, it’s not a bug, it’s a feature.
