Americans For Limited Credibility?

We are quick round here to point out things The Left/Mainstream Media do that stink up the place. Not because of who did them, but because they stink. So when allegations of place-stinking appear in our own camp, honesty and consistency demand we point that out, too.

Well, last Thursday Americans for Limited Government (ALG) announced that Dateline NBC producer Jane Stone allegedly sent one of their staffers, Alex Rosenwald, an email response that said, “Bite me, Jew Boy!” A very, very serious charge.

Of course, much furor erupted. NBC hotly denied the incident, while ALG stood by their charge.

Now, a week later, and... nothing. ALG has apparently never substantiated their accusation, and that is equally serious.

So until ALG either makes their their case - and I mean pony up some server logs or something - or apologizes to Dateline NBC and Ms. Jane Stone, I've dropped their email alerts and Twitter feed, and will not link to them anymore as a source. The burden of proof is on the accuser, and so far Americans for Limited Government hasn't met that burden.
