L.A. Times Overlooks Details of Kerry's FBI Record (VVAW Senatorial Assassination plot)

The Times also buried the best assessment of Kerry at the time by one of the FBI informants, who reported that Kerry should not be considered a dangerous subversive because he was obviously "a political opportunist".

[The Great RJ]

The fact that he was present at the meeting where the assassination of US Senators was seriously discussed and did nothing makes him an accessory to terrorism.

The Death of Journalistic Ethics - Bill O'Reilly 3/22/03

There has been a subtle shift in opinion journalism in America in the past few years.

Now, we have people working for newspapers and magazines who are devoted to getting certain polticians -- namely the left -- elected to office.

While Rush Limbaugh and the right-wing talk show cadre are entertainers -- and describe themselves as such -- these people are embedded in the elite media and are not supposed to be political activists.

In a stunning admission in Sunday's New York Times, the following people attended a meeting with Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) in New York City:
Frank Rich of The New York Times
Richard Cohen of The Washington Post
Jonathan Alter of Newsweek
Howard Fineman of Newsweek
Jim Kelly of Time Magazine
Jeff Greenfield of CNN
Eric Alterman of The Nation
Can you imagine if the President of FOX News Channel and the Editor of the Wall Street Journal met with President Bush in some apartment? -- there would be outrage.

THIS is the article they're talking about?:

FBI Shadowed Kerry During Activist Era

That article is also discussed on FR HERE.

bump !

I noticed this am when I read the article that the Times had omitted that the KC meeting involved an assassination plot of 7 US senators. How convennnnnnient...

Kerry and his "wannabee" Viet Nam combat veteran cronies should have been investigated, charged and indicted for conspiracy to plot an assassination of United States senators. A federal felony for starters.

I was on this precise subject before Insight. My article, "Clear Eye for the Hate Guy" was specially posted on FreeRepublic yesterday, and went up on ChronWatch.com this morning. The L.A, Times, and today the Washington Post, are cheating their readers and acting with journalistic incompetence.

One wonders just how soon before a senator or two demands that Kerry be censured and barred from the Senate floor for security reasons.

Then there are those reporters from the above-named periodicals who have covered up the threat to the safety of the Senate represented by Kerry and his fellow terrorists (some of whom are out campaigning for him).

Until this guy can clear this up he should not be allowed in or near any of the major public buildings in Washington DC.

[kennedy]

Hey, so he forgot. Give the man a break.

Obviously he must have attended so many different meetings where terrorist plots to assassinate U.S. elected officials were discussed that he can't keep them straight.

[PhilDragoo]

the Times confirmed from the FBI and other witnesses that Kerry had resigned from the VVAW leadership in November 1971 at a Kansas City board meeting to run for Congress.

But Kerry said he quit in July. This LA Times must be part of the Republican attack machine.

[doug from upland]

Hack is the word. I had sent him the info and he did a puff piece designed to protect Kerry.

[Victoria Delsoul]

Well, don't expect much from the media because it takes care of their own. Kerry is a Liberal, so is the main media.

[B-bone]

Hey. Give the guy a break. He probably drank too much iced-tea and was out of the room when the discussion took plac. . . Oh, never mind, wrong candidate.

[Alamo-Girl]

Thanks for the ping!
