As part of the 5th anniversary celebration of NewsBusters we have started a weekly Five for Five feature to list the blog's top twenty five posts. Last time, we looked at the top five posts on journalistic Obamagasms. On Friday we concluded with the top five posts of outrageous media outbursts.
We have picked out a couple posts from each of the five categories and asked the authors to reflect back on writing them up. In this series of short videos, they share their thoughts on how they caught the particular media moment and describe the impact their post had.
We finish our video look back by reflecting on two of top posts of outrageous media outbursts: "Rosie O'Donnell Spouts 9/11 Conspiracies: 'First Time in History Fire Has Ever Melted Steel'" by Justin McCarthy (reflection by Rich Noyes) and "Maher Buys Into Claim Sarah Palin's Baby Son Really Her Grandson" by Brent Baker.
Check out the last video of NewsBusters' Tim Graham and Kyle Drennen remembering some of the top posts on journalistic Obamagasms.
