Perhaps Garafolo would have answered the "reporter" differently -- in more detail, perhaps commented on FOX's in-kind promotion of the tea parties, we'll never know because she was directing and forming her answer to a misrepresting "blogger." That's why it's required of reporters to identify BEFORE they ask a question, and certainly unethical to LIE about his or her affiliation when asked. Otherwise, the interviewee's answers can not be considered to be credible. The rules of journalism are not for mere decorum, but to ensure the highest quality of the reporting as a trust between reporter and audience. It's impossible to say.

I was a reporter for a daily paper for 10 years and all reporters were trained that not OFFERING your identity and affiliation with paper was a crime, of course as well as refusing to answer an honest inquiry and lying about it. I would hace been fired, at least, for having done a similar ambush; however, FOX publishes it and ignores the breach of ethics. I agree.

Jenkins said he was a "just a blogger" when, according to the words of the F(R)NC web site itself, Jenkins is a "Fox News correspondent". "Just a blogger," correspondent for a nationally broadcast media outfit...yeah, those two things are exactly the same (rolls eyes). A lie that you don't believe to be significant is still a lie. Did the supposed 'lie'…
