We're getting nowhere demanding the LA Times release the Obama tape, and we won't get anywhere, because they have a perfect excuse for not releasing it: journalistic integrity. They claim they promised the source they wouldn't release the tape, and to do so now would compromise their ethics.
But there is a way they can "release the tape" without violating their ethics. They can release a full transcript.
No, it wouldn't have the same impact as releasing the actual tape, but they also have no excuse (to hide behind) for not releasing a full transcript immediatly.
They have already reported on the contents of the tape. They can't come back now and claim they promised not to report on the tapes contents.
Demand the LA Times print A COMPLETE TRANSCRIPT of the tape in this Sunday’s edition of the newspaper. Remove the excuse they have been hiding behind, and see what they do.
Could they leave something out of the transcript? Sure, but these things have a way of getting out eventually. Some day the actual tape will come to light. At that time there will be a lot of egg on some reporter's face should they manage to incorrectly transcribe the tape. Even the LA Times would think twice about altering a transcript.
here’s the number
1 213 237 6728
good luck
I called twice and made it a point of her listening to me even though she tried to cut me off arrogantly
no way can we let their arrogance to us the public be accepted anymore
Are there any Pictures out there of Barack Hussein Obama and Rashid Khalid together? If any can be found, they should be distributed widely over the next few days! I cannot find any. Anyone care to help search?
a decent skilled camera man/woman will know if it is edited no matter how good they are at editing
some how I think oabma was clapping when these speeches were said
no way could I imagine that obama just sat there and never smiled, never clapped.
we need as many people to press this to them

This kind of stuff generates its own pulicity even without the tape. People are paying attention to all the fuss about the Times NOT releasing the tape.
You are exactly correct. I know it is true that they lied and are covering for Obama because I have a video recording of the meeting where the plot was hatched. Unfortunately, my confidential source has forbidden me from releasing the video or providing a transcript. I can also not show the video to anybody else. Sorry. You’ll just have to take my word for it.
