News Flash!!: Obama’s campaign manager offers 3 million dollars to API in connection with Michelle Obama tape to be aired by Fox News Network

Posted by africanpress on October 29, 2008

Six hours after the release of information by API on the planned broadcast by Fox News Network of the Michelle Obama tape, in accordance with an agreement that has been reached between API and Fox News Network, API was contacted by Obama’s Campaign Manager.

Those who are close to the democratic presidential candidate must be desperate to win the elections no matter what, otherwise they would not have taken such bold step to contact API with an offer of a bribe in order to stop the airing of the tape.

Obama’s campaign manager contacted API by telephone and email offering 3 million US dollars followed with a request to API to cancel the deal with Fox News Network.

API has now taken a decision to contact the nearest American Embassy as soon as possible in order to report the case and hand over the evidence for investigative purposes.

OK, if this is real, this is BREAKING NEWS.

Supposedly, the audio is set to air on Fox News Channel after Obama's infomercial for maximum impact and to force Obama to make another national address after this story was to break.

We shall see!

This so-called "tape" has yet to be seen or heard.

Call me a doubting Thomas, but they have been talking about this "tape" for several months now.

haha...that’s so true, but for some reason I feel we’re going to be left with nothing but a cold shower.

If this is real, it will have a major impact on all News outlets in this country. It will finally expose a massive cover up and bring Fox News and API to the forefront and show how truth in journalism should be.

The old saying “if it’s too good to be true it probably isn’t”.

Must be an urban legend.

It’s API, so... yeah. We’ll need a sack of salt.

$3M for a tape? Heh. It’s not the crime, it’s the cover up!

David Axelrod, strategist in Barack Obama’s campaign said he feared a comeback by Republican McCain. ‘’Our nightmare is that in the end the huge consensus that Obama has gained will not transform into votes’’.

Tape?
