That was exactly what we were told during our coverage of John Edwards. I’ll repeat: if it’s true, we’ll report it. If it is not, we’ll report it. As we are a member of the Maintream press, we won’t black it out and tell you later we goofed: we’ll report on it and if what we report changes, we’ll report on that.

We assume that if people have the same info as us, they can make up their minds on the validity.

And see? You’ve already made up yours.

So that’s reassuring.

Thanks for your comment.

No, they’re not scamming, they’re just covering all their basis in order to preserve their credibility. It’s very important to them, even if the unedited tapes have an impact on the election, to release this information. It will be coming very, very soon. /s

"We are simply awaiting FOXNEWS to supply for us their bank account ID number and provide $2500 in deposit on account to our attorney Barrister Nagumbo Larumba for processing fees and surety monies.

At which point they we will trnasfer to FOXNEWS the documents and all pertaining materials and a check for $1 million US dollars to deposit for which they can keep 30% for processing fee"

I didn’t read this close. Did they say FOX News or The Simpsons?
