Jamil Safari
This Jamil Hussein thing has dragged on so long, you’d think we’d all be bored of it. I know I am. (Well, I would be, but I still have to read and rewrite the AP’s atrocious distortions on a nightly basis). Then something happens. AP claims proof. He exists! Some people exult. But AP can’t find him and neither can anyone else. He doesn’t exist! Other people. Or Confederate Yankee does something funny like write concerned citizen letters to Kathleen Carroll’s board of directors.
And now, Bob at ConfYank has found something curious. Rather, he hasn’t found something curious. That’s how it is in the Great Jamil Hunt. Often, what you don’t find is as important as what you do find. And Bob finds that the AP report that Jamil exists … no longer exists.

There is nothing the AP could do now to rescue the situation. Any thinking adult knows the precise weight to give to their reports. Actually, this thinking adult figured it out before this incident. Ditto al-Reuters.
