There’s something I don’t understand about this story. The LA Times are saying they won’t release the tape because they have to protect their source. No one is asking for their source. Release the tape and let the source remain anonymous.

I’m I missing something?

Knowing when and where would be helpful.

The goal of this protest shouldn’t be to get them to release the tape, it should be to cause enough of a traffic problem or enough of a scene that the protest itself will be the news. Then during the coverage of “PROTEST SNARLS TRAFFIC IN LA” the reporters may actually give out the news to millions that the protest is based upon the Times’ refusal to release a tape in which Obama toasts a terrorist supporter, sides with terrorists over Jews, etc. It’s a long shot that it would be covered this way, but probably a better shot than that the Times will actually release any tape based upon the protest.

If they hold the tape till after the election, or if they never release it at all, it will be the greatest disservice the media has ever done to the state of our nation. This is blatant electioneering, even surpassing the “fake but accurate” bush memo. At least fake news can be debunked, withheld truth can’t always be freed.

“If people cannot physically attend the protest at the LATimes Headquarters building in downtown Los Angeles, they are encouraged to call the offices at (213) 237-5000, fax a request to release the video or complaint against their current stance to (213) 237-7679.”

My problem with this is:

??What secret source would give a tape to a media outlet so that it couldn’t be aired or seen in print??

Secret source would keep it under the mattress if he wanted to have it remain secret!

Tanya, one of the LA Times operator, says folks will be in after 9am.

Ask for the Editorial Department.

17 minutes to go... .

I am beginning to smell a rat. Stick with me for a minute. What if this tape shows Obama standing up to the bashing by making some plea for common sense and respect for the great Jewish people. This is a design by the dems to get the release and show his human side to the sheeple.

...Nah, dems are not that smart. Release the tape!

Smelling a rat ain’t all bad.

It’s good to play the devil’s advocate.

Guys, to get the LA Slimes and other liberals' attention, you could carry signs that say:

FREE THE TERRORISTS video

Yes, they are not claiming that the source does not want to be revealed, they are claiming that the source does not want the tape released, which is utterly ridicules since they sent it to the LAT, which will not even release a transcript.
