Did the NYT quash an ACORN story? During her testimony, Ms. Heidelbaugh said Ms. Moncrief had told her The New York Times articles stopped when she revealed that the Obama presidential campaign had sent its maxed-out donor list to ACORN’s Washington, D.C. office. Ms. Heidelbaugh then told the congressional panel:

“Upon learning this information and receiving the list of donors from the Obama campaign, Ms. Strom reported to Ms. Moncrief that her editors at The New York Times wanted her to kill the story because, and I quote, “it was a game changer.”’

There are several troubling elements to this story. As Ed Morrissey points out, the alleged collaboration between Obama’s campaign and ACORN would constitute a violation of federal law, which prohibits campaigns from colluding with outside groups during an election season.

As Ed Morrissey points out, the alleged collaboration between Obama’s campaign and ACORN would constitute a violation of federal law, which prohibits campaigns from colluding with outside groups during an election season.

Unfortunately, only two entities can call Obama to account on this; Congress, who supports him and DOJ who he controls.
