The best part of the resume has yet to be written. That's the part that says he's the former Jerusalem bureau propagandist for Fairfax.

Mr O'Loughlin has rightly expressed his commitment to impartial journalism. His compliance with standards of such journalism has been independently evaluated by the Media Study Group in respect to his reporting and he has been invited to respond to their findings available at http://www.honestreporting.com/a/specialReports.asp?p=4. This is the only in-depth study into O'Loughlin's work and is noteworthy for its scrupulous methodology. It has revealed a clear and undeniable pattern of advocacy journalism in repeated and flagrant violations of journalistic standards.
