Carried the can for the fraudulent story about Iraq's WMD |
In 2002, Judith Miller and Michael Gordon played a key role in raising public support for the 2003 Iraq War. Their article in the New York Times, "Threats and Responses: The Iraqis; U.S. Says Hussein Intensifies Quest for A-Bomb Parts", asserted, "Iraq has stepped up its quest for nuclear weapons and has embarked on a worldwide hunt for materials to make an atomic bomb."
Anonymous "American officials" and "intelligence experts" were the only sources.[1]
Following Judith Miller's later refusal to reveal her source in the "outing" of CIA officer Valerie Plame, the NYT reporter spent 85 days in jail and was later released from the newspaper. The decision to release Miller also involved the controversy over the bias of her joint reporting with Michael Gordon regarding Iraq's nuclear intentions and the Bush administration. Despite his involvement in the controversy, Gordon remained the chief military correspondent for the New York Times.[2]
Activities
In 2001 Miller was a reporter for the New York Times when she took part in Operation Dark Winter.
She engaged in notoriously mendacious reporting about Iraq's WMD.[3]
