Do you sense there is some large mass of dark matter, an unseen Scandal Star, the gravitational pull of which is warping the coverage of what seems, on the surface, a pretty dull presidential race? I do. So does Ron Rosenbaum. I thought the Dark Star was the Edwards affair allegation. But Rosenbaum says "everyone in the elite Mainstream media" knows about another juicy scandal that the LAT is supposedly sitting on. I guess this is proof that I’m not in the elite, because I don’t know what he’s talking about. … My vestigial Limbaugh gland tells me it must involve

They’re actually thinking the FIRST woman AND lesbian president would fly ?? Dearlord.
Remember: The Clintons allowed condoms to be hung from the Christmas tree in one room.

I see that .. LOL
Welcome back, doug .. what do you think of this ??
Doesn’t have anything to do with Fred tanking—since no one knows the story. Who’s the source? Larry Flynt?
Fred tanking in an options trading game? Oh, well. I guess the traders aren’t impressed by him.
Wow, she’s even scarier lightened up! LOL
It could be anything, but that’s the big move for the last week or so. There are probably some people LAT and knew they were sitting on the story, and can’t keep their mouths shut.
Mr. Bean for President?
:>)
LOLOL, you almost made me post my ‘nekid’ picture of Kim Jong with Maddie!! But Halloween is over!
I was scared to ‘lighten’ any more because her nose kept getting bigger, lol!
My ‘bad’, we all have faults, snicker...
L.A. Times Editor Denies Having Heard About the Sex Scandal Story— And I Believe Him
posted at 11:10 pm on October 31, 2007 by Patterico
This morning Allah linked that rumor that the L.A. Times is sitting on a sex scandal involving a leading presidential candidate.
I tried nosing around a little, and asked Matt Welch about it. Matt is an Assistant Editorial Pages Editor for the paper, and a rare breed: an L.A. Times editor whom I trust. He is honest, smart, and plugged in — and he is definitely not part of the stuffy liberal old guard at the paper. (For example, he recently published a great book about John McCain which ridicules the myth that McCain is a straight-talking maverick.)
Here’s what Matt said to me:
I can tell you the following - I have never, ever, ever, never, ever, ever, ever heard anything about this. And I spent last week in Washington DC, worked in the LAT bureau, went to parties with LAT muckety-mucks, and gossiped with dozens of people who cover presidential politics; none of whom ever so much as mentioned anything about it.
Rosenbaum’s single, anonymous source is most certainly wrong, at least about the “everyone knows” part. He also most certainly is wrong that the same “everyone” apparently “doesn’t know what to do with it” — seasoned political journalists are not helpless bystanders in the face of juicy rumors, they are specifically trained to go out and investigate them, and report when relevant.
As for Rosenbaum’s agonizing over “reporting” such a thing, I don’t have much respect for it. Either report or don’t; save us the handwringing about stooping to “Web 2.0; whateverthehell.
You can quote me on all of that.
He left a comment on my site saying something similar, here.
This doesn’t mean the rumor isn’t true, but it’s the way to bet.
Hmmm, be our luck if it’s true that it’s something about one of ours!
Who wants to bet that if this "scandal" breaks, a radical mooselimb cleric will call for the execution of "hooam Ibeddin", causing a big opportunity for sympathy for hillary, while giving her the opportunity to show toughness against terrorists?
This was written in April ... I feel like a mushroom
in the back of the dark forest .. never heard of her, but
there’s plenty out there in a google blog search for hillary huma.
