That's all there is at this moment. Anyone have any idea what this is about?

McCain has personally pleaded with NY TIMES editor Bill Keller not to publish the high-impact report involving key telecom legislation before the Senate Commerce Committee, newsroom insiders tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

&&&&&&

Here is something to make you chuckle: NYTimes “insiders” are “leaking” to Drudge!!!!

Poor McCain must be having flashbacks by now at the treatment he is getting from the media that used to call him “maverick McCain” in a loving manner.

Why does this ploy smell like the Hillary! "Obama deals drugs" story?

What's worse, the story itself or the non-whisper whisper campaign about the story that isn't even published?

As it is now, everybody is talking about a story that the NYT hasn't published, which is probably worse than if the NYT had published the story first. Now, they don't even have to run the story, but the net effect is still the same.

John McCain is a world class genius for finally embracing his POW story and putting it in his ads. That’s how he can win the chick vote: http://www.johnmccain.com/Informing/Multimedia/

I don’t get what the controversy with the NY Times is. If it’s really complicated, no one will care.

Don’t know. I hate to say it... but they’ve messed with the wrong guy; Mc can snap once in a while.

What’s this a story about whether or not a story about a story may hold up, even though the principles in the story deny its existence?

Must be an election year and the liberals must be writing.

And Drudge must not have better things to do.

McCain beats Hillary Clinton, Barack Hussein & Johnny Edwards any time of the day. I don’t care which republican (Rino or not) wins the nomination can count on my vote in November.

I guess McCain really, really isn't a First Amendment kind of guy.

After all the CFR nonsense and then his attempts to squash political discussion on the internet....now this.

Rutenberg had hoped to break the story before the Christmas holiday, sources reveal, but editor Keller expressed serious reservations about jounalism ethics and issuing a damaging story so close to an election.

Knowing the Slimes, I'm sure their concern was over how best to avoid such ethics.

Just weeks away from a possible surprise victory in the primaries

For those intelligent enough to grasp it, that line says everything that need be said about the state of journalism these days.

So what’s McCain trying to sneak thru before anybody finds out about this time? Didn’t the idiot learn his lesson on the shamnesty, or is that what he’s pushing again? And some people are considering this ass to lead this country- I don’t think so!

Guess McCain can’t understand why the media (who he believed loved him), has betrayed him and revealed stuff about McCain which may or may not be true.

I’m not a McCain supporter so quite frankly, I don’t give a damn.

But .. it does show me that Hillary is terrified of him - and Clinton, Inc. is turning up the heat. That’s gratitude for ya .. after all the times McCain collaborated with Hillary or the dems on legislation.

Not sure what this is all about exactly.

But I know that of all the GOP candidates, McLame
is at the very BOTTOM of my list to support!
