Are you putting me on, Jim?
Yeah, I'm talking to you, James Rainey, of the Los Angeles Times.
It seems that the Times columnist just can't figure out how the MSM missed out on reporting the John Edwards scandal story despite the fact that the L.A. Times was Gound Zero for media refusal to report on this matter even after the National Enquirer broke an important aspect of the story in Rainey's own backyard at the Beverly Hilton. First the entertaining money quote from Rainey in today's column:
After reading "Game Change," a sweeping new account of campaign 2008 by veteran journalists John Heilemann and Mark Halperin, a reader might wonder: How could the schmucks on the bus miss the operatic disintegration of Edwards' once widely admired partnership with his wife, Elizabeth?

How about “BLINDED by LIBERALISM”, Rainey!!
PING!
They knew Edwards was a lightweight. Besides, they were too busy putting all their weight behind “missing” all the other important facts concerning Obama.
How about “traitorous complicity in attempting to subvert a presidential election”
Further proof that liberalism is a mental illness.
Rainey needs to ask his employer why they ordered reporters to NOT report the story.
They must all have the dumb look of “WHO ME?” on their faces.
miss?
*snicker*
sure.
Shouldn’t this have a ‘satire’ tag.
They knew, everyone knew. It was on NYPost Page 6 long long long time before the rest of the msm bothered to report it. They save the dirt for when it helps one of their own the most.
a lat jourbalist emotes out loud.
They missed the story because they are Democrats who are reluctant to report negative stories on Democrats. Whether it’s bias or intentional cover-ups, they won’t do anything to tarnish Dems. And it probably starts with their editors and publishers.
How did they miss the point that we were electing a person to be the CEO of the largest organization in the world and that person had no experience as a CEO? Any surprise that ZERO is in over his head?
In the future an automatic disqualification for President should be a Senator and or a law professor.
The left’s capicity for self-delusion and denial is amazing.
Obama was never a law professor. He was a visiting lecturer.
At least until he started running for President, and then the website had an “Extreme Obamover” like many websites mysteriously do these days, and he became a “professor”. LOL!
