Jeff Greenfield
It's interesting that Greenfield bemoans the "conspiracy theories" that portrayed Bill Clinton "as a drug ring- and murder-enabler." However, Here was Greenfield when he had a chance to skewer one of those conspiracy theorists:

Appearing as an "expert" on the Viewpoint special, [Rush] Limbaugh denied twisting the rumor [in which Limbaugh misinformed his listeners that a newsletter claimed "that Vince Foster was murdered in an apartment owned by Hillary Clinton, and the body was then taken to Fort Marcy Park"]: "Never have I suggested that this was murder," [Limbaugh] said. ABC's Jeff Greenfield, in a taped segment, further covered for the talk show host, claiming that Limbaugh "broadcast the rumor as an example of the more wild stories circulating."

One thing to keep in mind is that although Limbaugh downplays his Foster rumor-mongering to mainstream journalists like Greenfield, he still fans the flames of Vince Foster paranoia to the inhabitants of Wingnuttia (his radio audience) despite the fact that it's been over ten years since Foster committed suicide (and several investigations have found no evidence of foul play--e.g., click here and here).
