Wonder how many ComPost workers have submitted resumes to the Enguirer?
Woodward and Bernstein’s paper was scooped because it WANTED to be scooped.
The MSM kept Edwards’ campaign viable in the primary to keep Hillary in a 3 way race for delegates.
Just as the Houston Chronicle could not possibly have been blindsided about their boy Ken Lay’s Enron. They partnered with him on behalf of the downtown business establishment and securing Enron Field for the Astros.
Who cares. This is nothing but a distraction from things that really matter to America.
Not laughing , Howie.
Sadly, the NE has more journalistic integrity than your rag and the rest of the media whores.
Media Schadenfreude and Media Shenanigans
Remember when the MSM said “nothing to see, move along...”?
Wasn’t there a criminal investigation into the fraudulent use of campaign funds to pay John Edwards’ child support? He had a staffer claim to be the daddy.
Now this would mean that Mr. Edwards lied in a criminal investigation of his campaign. Culture of corruption that rose to the very top ranks (the candidate himself).
He should be facing JAIL TIME for his act of perjury. He compounded the charges.
Well I agree with him. Why not let the Inquirer have it? The Pulitzer prize is a joke anyway.
Inquirer = Enquirer
Why not? If Obama can win the Nobel Peace Prize why can’t the Enquire win the Pulitzer Prize? Fits right in with current trends.
This shows how the MSM kept the truth from the voters in a Presidential race. THAT’S why we care.
Fraudulent use of campaign donations and perjury in the subsequent investigation.
And the MSM KNEW about his affair. They covered it up just as his own wife did. They were perfectly willing to lie (by omission) to see him in the White House over McCain.
The media covered up Obama’s smoking habit as well. They don’t bother anymore. He won.
Not entirely.
It’s not important because of the story, it’s important because it exposes the MSM for covering up for liberal democrats. It exposes their obvious bias they claim to never have, it proves they have no objectivity where liberal democrats are concerned. And the vast majority of MSM knew and was covering it up, not just one paper.
This is where the value of the story is.
Yeah, they lied.
If national media covered up sleaze John Edwards missteps, just think what we still don’t know about Barry Omama.
It really matters to America when the media pursues a hidden agenda and refuses to inform the public (ie, refuses to do the very thing they exist to do) about a candidate for the presidential nomination.
Next: Larry Sinclair’s story vindicated. Investigations into Donald Young’s unsolved murder in Chicago.
Oh, I think undernews tells us alot about what the media is suppressing.
In terms of honest and open reporting the National Enquirer has long ago surpassed the likes of the NYTimes, Time Mag, WA Post, and the San Fran Chron just to name a few.
John Edwards, a typical ambulance chaser with an open zipper ready to bed any willing female.
