Know Thy Liberal Sources I

Let’s face it: Anyone with a computer can get “published” today, even the present writer. That reality of internet life makes it critical to establish the credentials of the person or persons who author articles read on the web before buying into his or her philosophies and theses.

With that in mind, I felt it judicious to delve into the world of Bonnie Erbe’ after reading her provocatively-titled piece, “Abortion Is Not a Tragedy,” http://www.scrippsnews.com/node/42197. One thing I discovered was that Ms. Bonnie is anything but “bonnie.”

For those such as I who must live sheltered existences and who are ignorant of who Ms. Erbe’ is, here’s the straight poop on her curriculum vitae: Aged 56, though her available photos such as this lop off at least 10 of her years, Erbe’ is a NYC-born graduate of Barnard College, (1974), Columbia (M.S. in journalism, 1975), and Georgetown Law (1987).

She is described by Wikipedia as “an American journalist and television host based in the Washington, D.C. area who has covered national politics since 1975,” which means, pretty impressively, that she has been so covering since she was 22.

Wikipedia goes on to say that Erbe’ is host and Chief Exec of the PBS program, “To the Contrary,” is a contributing (blog) editor at US News and World Report, and, oddly, serves as advisor to an immigration reduction organization, The Federation for American Immigration Reform.

Again, pretty impressive even if that’s the extent of Erbe’s Wikipedia entry. Further research turns up other interesting details about Erbe’, including the factoid that her PBS show is the first in the nation to exclusively feature women discussing the news: http://www.pbs.org/ttc/about_host.html.

As they say, the plot, Erbe’s pro-abortion plot, thickens. . .
