Romenesko is all about Judy Miller this morning, and branching out (Keller has his own entanglement problem, says Bunch). This was news to me:

Times executive editor Bill Keller's apparently chummy relationship with Paul Wolfowitz explains a lot, says Will Bunch. "It certainly explains the convoluted pieces that Keller wrote offering his support for the military action before it was launched. ...The problem with Keller, as with Judy Miller and much of the New York Times as a whole, was an unwillingness to listen to other voices outside of the White House, people who were trying to throw cold water on the case for war from Day One but were ignored in all the high-level wining and dining from Wolfowitz, Libby, and the rest."

Bunch writes the Attytood blog for the Philly Daily News, where this originated.

Here's the Times story today on Miller's exit.

Oh, and, by the way, the Times says about 135,000 people have signed up to pay for TimesSelect, the Times pay wall around the columnists who might call bull on some of this.

This can't be the best and the brightest. It can't.

Who is? Well, he's not on the White House beat for the Times, but I look forward to Keith Olbermann's video blog, aka Countdown, at 8 p.m. nightly on MSNBC. If you've never seen it, imagine Jon Stewart as an experienced newsman with the resources and video of NBC behind him.
