Top Ten Excuses Michael Hiltzik Can Use For Using Pseudonyms
The silence from the LAT camp on the status of Michael Hiltzik is deafening.
But that hasn’t’ stopped Independent Sources from learning the top ten excuses Hiltzik is considering:
1. “NoFAnOfCableCos” is a nickname not a pseudonym.
2. Like any good reporter, I will never divulge my anonymous pseudonyms.
3. “These are not the droids we’re looking for.”
4. Robert Scheer dared me to do it.
5. If it wasn’t for those damn budget cuts by Tribune then we could have paid people to attack my enemies and fawn over my writings.
6. Can’t you tools take a joke?
7. Someone logged into my email account.
8. Does the ethics code really apply me if I’m attacking people like Patterico?
9. I wasn’t using a pseudonym, I was doing an identity “mash-up”.
10. They do it all of the time…in Russia.
