Editor and Publisher has an excellent article on how much dark comedy one could find in Scotty McClellan's press conference gaggle today. How is it that he would dare to lecture the Press Corps on credibility, given the White House record on Weapons of Mass Destruction, using single sources in the WH administration stories (quite often unidentified sources), and other issues.

Just last week, McClellan suggested to the same reporters that President Bush had been informed about the D.C. evacuation scare, only to admit later that the president had been out of the loop. And who can forget: This is the man who brought us Mr. Credibility himself, Jim Guckert, a.k.a. Jeff Gannon.

Even more ironic, this is an administration that helped sell a war on intelligence often based (as in Newsweek's case) on a single source. Remember
