Novak's Meltdown, Part Deux

The head shaking continues from right-wing blowhard Robert Novak's on-air meltdown on CNN, where he muttered "this is bullshit" and walked off the set just as the host of "Inside Politics" was about to ask him about the Valerie Plame case.

Brian Montopoli, writing in CJR Daily, may have put it best:

Novak's outburst yesterday made him look more than ever like someone who's stayed in the game for too long, who's grown arrogant and condescending and contemptuous of the notion that he might be held to account for his actions, and who remains obdurately oblivious to the fact that in many quarters he's considered something less than a paragon of journalistic integrity.

Novak has long been a joke in serious journalistic circles. He is, and always has been, a spokesman for the rabid right, a spreader of propaganda at the behest of conservative Republicans who feed him spin and pull his strings.

In other words, he's a pompous phony who deserves whatever happens to him.
