Jill Abramson’s Obama Doll

RUSH: I have a tweet here from a woman named Erica Werner. The name probably doesn’t ring a bell. Erica Werner is a reporter. That means she’s a journalist. That means she’s objective, right? She works at the Washington Post and she is the Washington Post congressional reporter, and here is her tweet from 8:34 this morning: “A Benghazi bomb-thrower will be SecState and a torture overseer will be CIA director — IF CONFIRMED BY THE SENATE.” (sic) She used to work at the AP; now she’s at Washington Post. That’s a reporter. That’s a reporter tweet.

How about Jill Abramson? Jill Abramson was the executive editor of the New York Times for a long time. Now she’s writing, she’s thrown out of there, quit, whatever. Big buds with Jane Mayer of The New Yorker. Now she’s writing at The Guardian. Did she what she said? She’s been so distressed since Trump won that sometimes she has to pull her Obama doll out of her purse to remind her that it wasn’t that long ago that this was a great country.

Jill Abramson, executive editor of the New York Times, writing at The Guardian, said she gets so depressed and so out of sorts, she can’t believe what’s happening to America that she carries around with her in her purse a little Obama doll, not a bobblehead, an actual Obama doll. You can buy these things at the Obama shop, I guess. I don’t know. I’ve seen ’em. She’s got one.

She brings it out of her purse. … executive editor at the New York Times — and, remember, they hype themselves as, “We’re journalists. We are not activists.”
