Both ABC and NBC were doing some White House-pounding on the Kerik nomination this morning. I was especially struck by how ABC was talking up Kerik’s rumored extramarital affairs. Why, back in the Clinton years, you could not only have an affair, but lie about it to the FBI, have an independent counsel attached to you to cost the taxpayers millions, and still serve in the cabinet as HUD Secretary. I don’t remember ABC having any reservations or criticism about that…not to mention what they had to say about Clinton’s affairs pre-Lewinsky.
