Someone should inform ethically-challenged pundit, commentator and journalist Armstrong Williams that despite what he said today during a live chat on the Washington Post's site about not being a journalist, he labeled himself as such back in 1998 when he made a donation to a politician.

Williams, who came under criticism last week for accepting money from the Bush Administration to promote its education agenda, seems to have a selective memory.

Records at the PoliticalMoneyLine's web site, www.tray.com, show Williams has made three donations since 1991.

In his discussion with Washington Post readers, Williams promises to be more upfront and revealing with his audience. (Source: WashPost.com)

I suggest he keep that promise by informing people about his political giving.
