An investigative journalist is something else entirely.
Contributing editors do not write investigative pieces, and vice versa.
Spin it any way you want. This person who claims to be a "professional journalist" admits that he or she is biased and is truly a biased "investigational journalist".

Cool hmm....

A professional is a person who is paid to undertake a specialised set of tasks and orchestrate them with uncommon skill.

No, no more than they see the hypocrisy of boasting that they're patriots and the military is their personal voting bloc, but when a veteran chooses the opposite side, suddenly they aren't so special to them. It's the same blind idiocy that prompted them to use Palin thinking she'd draw Hillary supporters, or in using poor Michael Steele as RNC head after President Obama's election or in the belief that Marco Rubio would draw Hispanic voters just because of his name.
It's shallow thinking and blind allegiance to Karl Rove, the K Streeters who manipulate them so skillfully and the CEOs making $430 to every $1 earned by an actual worker. It makes me ashamed to live in the same country. My prayers go out to Scot Olsen, and I hope other branches of the military who swore to uphold the Constitution and not Wall Street criminals will join with the Marines. As long as they follow Gandhi, Thoreau and Dr. King and remain nonviolent, most fellow Americans will be disgusted at the oppression of our First Amendment rights. To echo '68, "THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING!"

Oy, what you dont know about journalism is a lot.
The perfect analogy would be like calling a cardiologist a gerontologist.
