Brian Ross reporting on April 30th:
Also on Palfrey’s list of customers who could be potential witnesses are a Bush administration economist, the head of a conservative think tank, a prominent CEO, several lobbyists and a handful of military officials.
Washington Post today, as posted in the Corner:
In one case, a man who told the escort service he was a White House economist turned out to have engaged in résumé inflation. He actually works across the street as an analyst for the Office of Thrift Supervision, Ross said.
“One guy swore to me up and down it couldn’t have been him, he loves his wife,” Ross said. The man, a well-known member of a conservative think tank, was right: Palfrey, Ross said, had repeatedly misdialed his number by confusing the 202 and 301 area codes.
Unbelievable. Here’s the transcript from 20/20 with no mention from Ross of his errors. And what’s worse, he kept silent prior to the airing of his segment because without his two top outs, a Bush admin. economist and the head of a conservative think tank, nobody would have watched.
