Related: About this forumWhere's Joe Conason?
He was the source for the NY Times story regarding Colin Powell and Clinton's emails, it was his book they were quoting. When Powell disputed the account, the media blamed Clinton. Conason wrote a column in Newsweek stating that Clinton wasn't the source but other people who were at the dinner were.
So the real question is why has Joe Conason not been asked on CNN or MSNBC when they are discussing this topic? You would think he would have been first on their list.

How was he obnoxious?

(37,364 posts)I would have been hardpressed to think that he was anything but at ease with trying to tear the Dem ticket down. I was busy at the time, & I may be misremembering the program. It caught my attention for a few minutes because I hadn't seen him on for quite sometime. I really was annoyed with him and went back to finish the task at hand.

(2,280 posts)I checked both the MSNBC site and the show's twitter feed and Conason is not listed as a guest anytime this week. Sure who you saw was Conason?

(37,364 posts)I keep the tv running to provide noise in the house. I know I saw him this past week. I've been going between a couple cable channels. Perhaps it was a CNN show. I don't have a clear recollection of the program, only seeing Conason and he was being a jerk.
