Hacktacular!

You kids remember when George Will gushed about how well Reagan did after one of the presidential debates in 1980 without disclosing that he helped prep Reagan for said debate?

It seems that Kristol and Krauthammer were so impressed by the lack of journalistic ethics that they just had to get involved.

Weekly Standard editor William Kristol lauded President George W. Bush's inauguration speech as "powerful," "impressive," and "historic," both in an article for the January 31 print edition of The Weekly Standard and as a FOX News political contributor during FOX's live coverage of Inauguration Day. Washington Post columnist and FOX News contributor Charles Krauthammer, also during FOX News' live Inauguration Day coverage, called Bush's speech "revolutionary" and compared it to fomer President John F. Kennedy's 1961 inaugural address. But Kristol and Krauthammer were consultants for Bush's speech -- a fact that neither disclosed.
