Interesting. The Red Star calling out the SF Comical. Has this ever occurred before?
I thought the purpose of the media was to find the most relevant news and report it, not hide it within 45 other minutes of mundane audio that they hope no one listens to completely. No one, NO ONE, can honestly suggest that they would have treated this audio in this manner had it been McCain promising to bankrupt an entire industry and cause everyone’s electric bill to skyrocket. Journalism is dead.
LOL! Somebody hit a nerve. ;o)
Quote from Melanie Philips, The Spectator ( UK )

‘You have to pinch yourself - a radical who all his life has been mentored by, sat at the feet of, worshiped with, befriended, endorsed the philosophy of, funded and been in turn funded, politically promoted and supported by a nexus comprising black power anti-white racists, Jew-haters, revolutionary Marxists, unrepentant former terrorists and Chicago mobsters, is on the verge of becoming President of the United States.
And apparently it’s considered impolite to say so.’
Great quote!!!

This fellow has been very anti Palin all along.
That putz has been a columnist for Red Star for quite a while. Hates the hell out of Palin (proving once again, as if any more proof were necessary, that he’s a moron).

For starters, here's a list of Obama's history that is unknown to the American public and completely unexamined by McClatchy (the KC Star):
Occidental College records — Not released
Columbia College records — Not released
Columbia Thesis paper — ‘not available’
Harvard College records — Not released
Medical records — Not released
Illinois State Senate schedule — ‘not available’
Law practice client list — Not released
Harvard Law Review articles published — None
University of Chicago scholarly articles — None
Illinois State Senate records—'not available'
Room for alot a investigative journalism in those areas. But from McClathy there was no digging, no curiosity. Not even a hint of effort.
....
Unfortunately, McClatchy readers know more about the history of Sarah Palin and Joe the plumber.

Malpractice: McClatchy failed its readers by choosing not to examine Barack Obama's record

Has McClatchy served its readers by investigating candidate Barack Obama?
The answer is a definite No.
In their election coverage, McClatchy reporters avoided the vast unexplored regions of Barack Obama's history and record -- they spent their efforts "debunking" charges from FOX News instead of focusing on Obama's actual history. For starters, here's a list of Obama's history that is unknown to the American public and completely unexamined by McClatchy:
Room for alot a investigative journalism in those areas. But from McClathy there was no digging, no curiosity. Not even a hint of effort.
When McClatchy reporters did cover areas that could be damaging to Obama's candidacy (ie, stories on Bill Ayers), the articles in many ways were indistinguishable from Obama campaign talking points. Literally. And when reporters quoted "experts" in articles favorable to Obama, the "experts" often turned out to be Obama partisans (here and here), or worse, Obama donors (see here and here).
Unfortunately, McClatchy readers know more about the history of Sarah Palin and Joe the plumber.
Subscribers might have a good argument for a journalistic malpractice lawsuit. If not reasons to cancel their subscriptions. Graphic via Bob McCarty, list based on a post at Free Republic.
