MARGARET WENTE HITS JOURNALISTIC BOTTOM WITH HER CANCUN CONFERENCE MUTTERINGS: SAYING THINGS SHE WASN'T THERE TO SEE

POSTED RESPONSE TO A COLUMN BY MARGARET WENTE IN TORONTO'S GLOBE AND MAIL

"There were lots of parties with Mexican music and free booze."

I'll call this Wente journalism.

The woman was not even there, but reports gossip - or is it even gossip? - as though it were established fact.

This is as poor as journalism gets.
