That Michael Ware story

Hot Air: CNN reporter denies heckling McCain; with updates

Supposedly he “heckled and mocked” McCain? Never happened. Allahpundit has been following this kerfuffle carefully and honestly:

I don’t see anything that looks like heckling or laughing. McCain and Graham are unperturbed and there are no interruptions. The second clip does cut out immediately after the press conference ends, with Ware still sitting in his seat and trying to ask a question, so it’s possible he did something then. But in that case, Drudge’s report is still wrong — he said the heckling happened “during” the presser, while McCain and Graham were speaking.

Update: As of 1:50 p.m., the McCain/Ware items have disappeared entirely from Drudge’s front page. Let’s see if Raw Story forces them back on.

Drudge = Truthout.org

Update: Ware on CNN right now, severely bashing the Dems deadline plan.
