Why doesn't CNN's Nic Robertson see Fox's Steve Harrigan? Because Harrigan is out covering the story, while Robertson is doing what Kadaffi tells him to do--that's why!

CNN's Nic Robertson is too busy being Muammar Kadaffi's stooge to notice that FNC's Steve Harrigan is actually out covering the story.  Sorry, Nic: Being Kadaffi's puppet doesn't count as journalism.

The Cable Gamer never had much of an impression on Nic Robertson.  And she was surprised and appalled to see Robertson taking a gratuitous swing at Harrigan, as recorded by Frederick E. Allen:

“I see him more times at breakfast than out on trips with government officials here. So for them to say and call this—to say they didn’t go and for them to call this and say this was government propaganda to hold us there as human shields when they didn’t even leave the hotel . . . is ridiculous. . . . We very rarely see the Fox News team.”

And so now we know how Robertson ended up as a human shielf for Kaddafi: Because Robertson was all too willing, that's why.  And after that, Robertson attempted to cover for himself a bit by trashing a fellow journalist.
