    Good work, Mr. Cook. There are some in this thread and in other threads who are criticizing you for devoting so much effort to painting Nidal Hassan as something other than a terrorist. I, for one, haven't come to this conclusion. You certainly aren't engaging in that kind of supposed moralizing here. You are simply calling out a well-known journalist who regularly appears on a nationally-televised nightly news program for a misleading, poorly-sourced, and potentially inflammatory report. It's received widespread attention and has already been misappropriated by those who would like use this incident as evidence for a broader Islamist conspiracy. It's unlikely that Ross will retract the story or even deign to provide any clarification. If the mainstream media refuses to enforce the necessary journalistic accountability, then at least we have lowly bloggers like you to point out the inconsistencies. #nidalmalikhasan

    ABC News has been a muted Fox doppelganger for a while now. Ross is just proof of this. #nidalmalikhasan

    Your nitwitted nit-pickery is awesome. The guy shot and killed over a dozen people. He did it in the name of Islam. He reached out to a radical cleric in Yemen. He's part of the storm on the horizon. Cry to Keith Olbermann, maybe you can get on MSNBC. #nidalmalikhasan

    @HandsomeBwonderful: I figure starred commenters should actually be readers of the site, and if you read the site, you'd know that myself and many other Gawker writers have repeatedly criticized and mocked Keith Olbermann and that Gawker has been repeatedly attacked by him. #nidalmalikhasan

    So, using the tortured logic that the right is using to say Obama knew Hasan, therefore the NRA is a terrorist organization! #nidalmalikhasan

    I'm sorry -- having a little trouble keeping track of the doublespeak these days: are "wingnuts" the good guys, or the bad guys?

    Geezus fuck, this line of Fort Hood stories on Gawker is weak. #nidalmalikhasan

    Wow. Nine paragraphs?

    How about this... he's a Muslim. He's a terrorist. He said lots of anti-American things and then snapped and killed a bunch of people while shouting 'Allah Ackbar'.

    Yep, he's a 'Muslim Terrorist'. Case closed. #nidalmalikhasan

    @Han Valen: Agreed. By not simply acknowledging this, we sound like the crazy right-wing nut jobs who insist that the murdered census worker who had the word "FED" carved in his chest may have been killed for reasons other than anti-government sentiment. #nidalmalikhasan
