We've made four calls (counting being transferred) to Fox News NY and are awaiting a reply. There has been no confirmation--or denial--of the African Press International story at this time. But as one Fox News producer who had previously contacted us on another story, said, "It's a big building. I wouldn't expect to know about this right now."

Ping me when or IF it is released.

I’ll post it all over Creation!

[San Jacinto]

Maybe if they hurry they can get the "tapes" out right after the election.

This crap got old a long time ago.

[subterfuge]

Why the headlines about this? Is it so Obama’s Believers can do something about it before it goes public? Is it a warning?

I have serious doubts that this will get out before the election, but what do I know?

[allmendream]

Its going to be delivered any second now by Elvis and Batboy in a UFO.

[Joiseydude]

IBTZ

[Constitution Day]

S**t or get off the pot, API!

[nmh]

bttt

[anoldafvet]

Will you please stop posting this crap. It is getting annoying.

[CatOwner]

Another damn blog report. Ugh ...

[tatown]

Has their 24 hours expired yet? /sarc

[nmh]

API is in the bag for Obama.

Bet ya they’re charging an arm and a leg for it.

[Old Sarge]

Isn’t API the place with banking interests in Nairobi?

And the announcement will be made in 24 business hours.

Just think, we’re only $10 away from an indictment.

[DesScorp]

This whole thing is becoming the equivilant of a Nigerian email scam. Put up or shut up, “API”.

[nhwingut]

Same Africans that brought you 10 billion emails in your junk folder.

[nhwingut]

you beat me by 7 seconds... LOL

[jennyjenny]

Didn’t they say just yesterday that it would not be FOX news?

[Brian S. Fitzgerald]

API has an NGO license and is tax exempt, maybe we can threaten to have his license revoked.

[GulfBreeze]

Fox News ALSO hasn’t denied that Obama is a creature from outerspace. (Just for the record.)

[CatOwner]

And not a peep from the Obama campaign. Ever stop to wonder why?
