Last night, CNN anchor Lou Dobbs abruptly announced that he was leaving the network, effective immediately. TPM notes that in the weeks preceding his departure, Dobbs told GQ that the White House had been conspiring with a number of groups, including ThinkProgress, to wage “insidious and sordid attacks” against him with the goal of intimidating him and his former network:
GQ: That was my next question. Have you heard from the administration?
LD: Of course I have. Sure. Without question. They are coordinating with a number of groups, including the Center for American Progress. The usual suspects. To carry out constant and absolutely insidious and sordid attacks on me. And the reason they’re doing so, I’m the leading independent voice, and I am critical on their policies and intent, on unconditional amnesty, and leaving the borders and ports unsecure. They cannot, they’re. . .
GQ: They’re afraid of that point of view? They don’t think their point of view will carry against…
LD: Apparently not. Otherwise why would you do such a thing? But I will not be intimidated, and I understand that. Therefore they’re trying to intimidate my network and my owners.
For the record, neither ThinkProgress nor its parent organization, the Center for American Progress Action Fund, collaborated with the White House on our Dobbs coverage. However, Dobbs’ paranoid remarks did come around the same time ThinkProgress began promoting the efforts of progressive activists who were leading the Drop Dobbs, Tell CNN Enough Is Enough, and Basta Dobbs campaigns aimed at pressuring CNN to hold Dobbs to journalistic standards.
ThinkProgress has always focused on media accountability. Throughout the years, Dobbs has repeatedly left himself wide-open to legitimate criticism, not baseless attacks. Some recent examples:
– This summer, ThinkProgress reported that Dobbs had joined the birther movement and claimed President Obama might be an undocumented immigrant.
– The Wonk Room reported that the Lou Dobbs Show was promoting the myth that “people who break immigration laws” will be “rewarded” with free health care coverage.
– Shortly after we noted that Fox News’ John Stossel and Glenn Beck openly criticized Dobbs’ anti-immigrant “rants,” Dobbs proceeded to rip Stossel as a “self-important ass” with his “own brand of myopic idiocy.”
– ThinkProgress documented Dobbs slamming the “vile stupidity and ignorance” of “annoying” Geraldo Rivera, who had also denounced Dobbs’ immigration tirades.
– Most recently, Dobbs claimed that “ethnocentric interest groups” and Rivera himself were to blame for gun shots fired at his house. ThinkProgress called up the New Jersey State Police and broke the news that the shooting more likely involved a hunter’s stray bullet.
The efforts to get Dobbs off the air were not one-sided. Scott Stanzel, who used to work in President Bush’s communications shop, applauded the decision today in a statement to Politico: “I will not miss Lou Dobbs, his show or his ‘advocacy journalism.’ In recent years, the blurring of the lines between opinion and news reporting has damaged the credibility of mainstream reporters and news organizations. It’s refreshing to see CNN make a decision to fill the Dobbs slot with a respected and accomplished hard news journalist like John King. Maybe there is hope for the news business after all.”
Ha ha Lou is a funny guy.
November 12th, 2009 at 2:42 pmFunny, as in funny haha and funny as in crazy old man.
Dobbs…. you need help.

November 12th, 2009 at 2:43 pmWait, Lou Dobbs has an enemies list? How Stalinesque of him, I’m sure he’ll fit right in at Fox.
November 12th, 2009 at 2:43 pm“Paranoia runs deep, into your life it will creep…”
Creep, that’s the word for Mr. Paranoia, Lou Dobbs. He really has an insanely inflated opinion of how much time anyone devotes to shooting him in the foot; seems to be entirely self-inflicted and I doubt he keeps a time-card.
So, where are the trolls to support the Dobbsian generality of TP and CAP being out to get’em?
November 12th, 2009 at 2:45 pmI am sure that the extraordinarily gifted and wise journalist that Dobbs is will serve him well as he proves his assertion of such a conspiracy…Pffft, yeah, right.
November 12th, 2009 at 2:46 pmHow is it that all these tough guy blatherers like Dobbs, Limbaugh and the crew at FOX play the victim card so well?
November 12th, 2009 at 2:47 pm.
But of course to Lou, it’s not a conspiracy theory when HE delves into one, is it?

November 12th, 2009 at 2:49 pmLou, would you like some cheese with that whine?
November 12th, 2009 at 2:50 pmFOX should have Dobbs and Glen Beck do a show together. They can call it “Lou and Boo Hoo, Two Half-Wits Make a Whole Wit”.
November 12th, 2009 at 2:51 pmamazing – he created most if not all of his controversy
he was actually sane until that “horrible black man” came to power – i am throughly convniced that his decompensation from the sane world is not do to a “liberal” democrat in office but because…..
November 12th, 2009 at 2:51 pmLMAO, awww Lou, did we hurt your feelings?
November 12th, 2009 at 2:52 pm.
Why do people in the media conveniently forget that the Internet and YouTube capture a lot?

November 12th, 2009 at 2:52 pm#13 PLC,
November 12th, 2009 at 2:53 pmROFLMAO on that one.
Yes, Lou…everything’s a conspiracy.
TP conspired with the White House, ACORN, SEIU, CAIR, LULAC, and the leprosy-bearing illegal immigrants who stalk you at every corner to get you to leave CNN.
Whackjob.
November 12th, 2009 at 2:54 pmLD: They are coordinating with a number of groups, including the Center for American Progress. The usual suspects. To carry out constant and absolutely insidious and sordid attacks on me.
classic paranoia.
November 12th, 2009 at 2:55 pm“insidious and sordid attacks” … in other words, … quoting him.
November 12th, 2009 at 2:55 pm“Paranoia strikes deep, into your life it will creep…”
- Buffalo Springfield, late 1960s song.
It seems that many of the white racists are busy projecting onto President Obama all of their paranoid fears from their own pathetic lives of being hostile by race and color. They fear that a black President in power may do to them what they have been doing to blacks for hundreds of years. Scary, brother…
November 12th, 2009 at 2:55 pmAIO says:

Because they are victims. Victims of their own ideology. America is not rich white men.

And, of course, like any good journalist, he immediately backed up his assertions with researched and vetted facts!
What’s that? He didn’t? He made it up and expected the GQ guy to just accept it as truth?
nevermind

LOL Good one.
November 12th, 2009 at 2:58 pmHas anyone mentioned that Lou Dobbs is an idiot?
November 12th, 2009 at 2:58 pmI think it’s automatically implied.
November 12th, 2009 at 3:00 pmIf exposing Dobbs with his own words, and laughing myself silly over his narcissistic self-importance and racism cloaked in uber-patriotism are “insidious and sordid attacks,” then I CONFESS!!!
I did it! I’m glad I did it! AND, I’ll do it again!
November 12th, 2009 at 3:01 pmLD: “But I will not be intimidated…”
Looks like you WERE intimidated into leaving Lou.
Maybe now the crazy old bastid will team up with the other crazy old bastid McCain for the making of “The Bucket List-Part 2″.
November 12th, 2009 at 3:03 pmInsidious and sordid, huh?
Dayum. We’re GOOD!!! *snicker*
November 12th, 2009 at 3:03 pmwatch … it’ll turn out to be a brain tumor…
and then i might have to feel sorry for him…
sorry if that’s harsh… nothin’ personal…
November 12th, 2009 at 3:04 pmLou: You lost your miind several years ago. You should realize that you are just not that important and you are a hateful sob.
November 12th, 2009 at 3:04 pmI am pleased to hear that Laugh-a-minute Louie is going to consider “new opportunities for constructive change”.
I have a humble suggestion for you, Louie:
Sit down and STFU!
November 12th, 2009 at 3:04 pmDobbs is a paranoid, dishonest, crazy racist. Hopefully now that he’s off the air he can get some professional help.
November 12th, 2009 at 3:10 pmIf it’s one person I hope never to hear from again it’s Lou Dobbs. He’s so boring.
November 12th, 2009 at 3:11 pmThe fact that Lou Dobbs is complaining about various people attacking him suggests that Lou did not leave on his own accord. If he did he would have announced it a couple days before he actually left. The quick departure leads me to believe he was asked to leave.
November 12th, 2009 at 3:12 pmSigh, well replacing Dobbs with King is not much of a change. King is just another Style of opinion journalism that always seems to land on the right side of issues.
He’s just better and hiding it.
November 12th, 2009 at 3:13 pmIs Lou Dobbs onto the scoop of the century here? Will this be an Acorn moment, where Dobbs will reveal the collusion between the White House and Think Progress to squelch dissenting voices in the media?
Or is this just more BS from a guy who has fallen very far from grace? Let’s see some investigative journalism there, Mr. Dobbs. Go ahead and prove what you’re saying. Put up or shut up.
November 12th, 2009 at 3:13 pmPsychiatrist: ‘Mr. Dobbs, we’ve determined you’re NOT paranoid.
Dobbs: ‘Really? That’s great news!’
Psychiatrist: ‘Perhaps, but the bad news is everyone else IS out to get you…’
November 12th, 2009 at 3:14 pmHilarious.Is this the best that Dobbs can say for his reason for leaving CNN? Senor Dobbs blames ThinkProgress of conspiring with the White House? Poor widdle Thinkprogress blog hurt yer feelings, Louie? Sad…

I’m liking this – FOX being held accountable (to some degree) by The Daily Show.. Media Matters outing WND’s lies… and Lou Dobbs claiming it was Think Progress that caused him to quit.
However paranoid these people might be.. we are definitely having an effect on every front.
November 12th, 2009 at 3:51 pmDobbs, just get your fat ass over to FOX where you belong and stop bullshitting around. We all know where you’re going.

“Insidious” would imply that CFAP is involved in a secretive campaign to discredit Dobbs. However, CFAP has called him out as a liar and a fool very publicly, and nobody has discredited Dobbs as effectively as Dobbs. So now it’s off to the last great refuge of vitriolic broadcast dishonesty: talk radio, with the rest of the unaccountables.

——————————————
I guess King would be a big improvement over Dobbs, but I’m not sure I’d call him a “hard news journalist” after watching his soft-ball interview with Dick Cheney and seeing too many “State of the Union” shows where he seems to be enforcing the 2-conservatives-per-liberal rule for guest commentators.
November 12th, 2009 at 6:08 pmkatecarr,
I never watched his program and don’t even subscribe to cable but, I’ve seen enough well documented accounts to realize that Mr. Dobbs makes a habit of lying to advance his political agenda. That’s unforgivable. And his whiny excuses make me think even less of him.
November 12th, 2009 at 6:15 pmDon’t you just love these Law Makers and even Lou Dodds who are married to immigrants while attacking them. Many even have children and still never give the respect their own Family members. Lou has to blame someone because he will never accept the fact it was his fault and hate.
Think Progress is one of the best blog site with correct up dated information even better then the Media/Press. Keep up the good work and we’ll keep blogging. Oh wait for President Obama to announce what he will do with Afghanistan because not one Journalist/reporter/Media/Press will be given the information first. It will be released by the White House.
November 12th, 2009 at 6:47 pmThe more insidious and sordid attacks we can mount on LouLou the better. This man represents the WORST of all reporting almost equal to the scum that Beck and Hannity represent. BUT, when LouLou gets over to Cluster-Fox he WILL BE the King of Slime.
November 12th, 2009 at 7:04 pmPoor Lou. Didn’t take him long to start whining about how us “liberals” got him fired, did it.
November 12th, 2009 at 7:10 pmLD: “… And the reason they’re doing so, I’m the leading independent voice…”
Sorry Lou. You used to be a journalist, then a commentator and have become an ideologue, which would be fine if you would admit it, but you are not an independent voice.
There are many independent voices. They aren’t ranked as to their independence, which they are by definition. I, too, am an independent voice, but have neither need nor desire to be graded.
Where oh where are you Edward R. Murrow when we need you most?
November 12th, 2009 at 7:13 pmNo, it’s the constant obfuscation that scares the bejesus out of people, because it is clear there are plenty of Americans either too dumb to know the difference or too lazy to check. What is extraordinary is that Dobbsians and Foxsuckers still consider these people credible sources.

Mr Dobbs is correct. ThinkProgress is one of the most hateful blogs in the internet. I’ve personally never seen such vile hatred of fellow Americans as i’ve seen on ThinkProgress.
And you folks call yourselves “tolerant?” Riiigggghhhtttt!!!!
November 13th, 2009 at 10:26 pmMr. Dobbs is correct. I’m just browsing tonight, but I stopped reading these comments weeks ago. The hatred and childish responses to my serious questions got to be too much. Every question was met with such outlandish vitriol from every respondant, it just had me scratching my head. Who are you people. Hopefully no one I will ever know.

There are plenty of thoughtful comments on this site. MORON concern trolls like YOU add NOTHING to any site so I am glad you stopped reading now why dont you just STFU and let the adults talk. Dobss is NOT right YOU are a liar. Yes I KNOW I am mean and make personal attacks. I also KNOW I am the minority of the liberals here. We get that ignorant punks like you think us liberals ought to just TAKE abuse and not give it back we just dont care one whit what a dishonest piece of garbage like YOU thinks

You say; “I stopped reading these comments weeks ago”, but yet here you are reading the comments.
I can’t take you seriously because you talk nonsense and rote talking points.
btw let me explain because I can see you’re rather thick;
I couldn’t care less if you take me seriously or not.
Lou Dobbs is basically and overpaid blowhard idiot who thinks a lot of himself. He a selfish moron who was getting 7 million dollars a year to bash Hispanics and show just how racist he really is. If the idiot didn’t notice every one of his stupid shows was about illegal imigration. That seems like someone who is obsessed with race to me.
This ugly man needs to take a long look in the mirror and search his rotten soul and he’ll find that he and the devil are one a the same. Lou Dobbs is going to rot in hell forever when he passes from this earth. There’s a seat right next to Adloph Hilter, Sadam Hussein, and all of the other little dictators that have gone to hell before him. So you’d better enjoy your time on earth Louie because hell is forever.

November 14th, 2009 at 4:52 pmIsn’t that a bit over-dramatic?
Lou is a redundant overpaid tv loudmouth with a giant jack o’ lantern head.
That doesn’t put him in the same category as Adloph Hitler.
Maybe Obama needs to get Lou and The shadow to sit down and have a beer together.
I wrote to CNN a number of times to complain about Beck. He’s gone! I wrote to CNN a couple of times to complain when Dobb’s was driving me insane with his batshit ravings. I cancelled my cable package -the part that included CNN – and told CNN I’d check back in a month or two to see if they had improved their journalism standards. No conspiracy here, just a pissed off viewer. I wonder how many other viewers did the same? Bottom line – the people have spoken!
