Seattle PI Strikes Filth Again

Seattle PI Strikes Filth Again

Earlier this year, the Seattle Post Intelligencer invoked the name of a locally born soldier, killed in Iraq in its criticism of US Representative George Nethercutt. The PI has edited a speech by Nethercutt to make him sound as though he did not care about US military casualties in Iraq. When he fought back, the PI attacked him in an editorial saying that Nethercutt's words would bring little peace to that family.

"The family of Pfc. Kerry Scott of Concrete, who buried their young hero Tuesday, likely would not share Nethercutt's news judgment.”

With that background, it's worth noting that when the PI recalled the passage of notable locals, it cited terrorist sympathizer Rachel Corrie (seen here burning a US flag at a Palestinian terrorist rally), but lists no soldiers killed fighting terror.
