The reporter who exposed Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam's racist yearbook photo said a "concerned citizen" led him to the story that has prompted widespread outrage and calls for the Democrat's resignation.
Patrick Howley, editor in chief of the website Big League Politics, first reported Friday the existence of a photo on Northam's page of his medical-school yearbook depicting a figure in blackface standing next to another person in a Ku Klux Klan hood.
"It's very easy to explain," Howley, 29, said in an interview Saturday. "A concerned citizen, not a political opponent, came to us and pointed this out. I was very offended (by the photo) because I don't like racism."
The tip came after Northam's comments on Wednesday about late-term abortions, he said. Howley declined to give any further information about his source, citing a confidentiality agreement. But he said it took him just a few hours to confirm that the photo was authentic.

Does he FReep?
Very true! I was on that amazing thread the night Buckhead literally brought 'ol Dan Blather down. I believe TankerKC also contributed to exposing Blather.
Two other blogs took credit for Buckhead's and TankerKC's work: Little Green Footballs and Power Line. GRR!
The Dan Rather exposé happened on FreeRepublic.com. I saw the whole thing happen live HERE.
“Doesnt make it so.”
Thank you so much. Until your post, I thought everything on the internet, and especially Google, was true.
Thats funny.
Thanks for the complement.
Liz and I are old Freeper Friends who agree with each other about 99.99999% of the time.
“I take it this is where the docs $$ came/comes from.”
You are probably correct. The dems will do anything for money, including killing innocent babies from conception to birth and now post birth.
Thanks for re posting this terrible reality.
“The governor is a literal babykiller rather than politically theoretical one!”
However, he may be an Equal Opportunity Baby Killer.
He probably kills any baby, male or female and of any race at any time from conception to post delivery.
“Thats my issue with Hospice in general often they help people die sooner than they need to, or in many cases, want to. Going on hospice is often simply an acceleration of death and dying disguised as compassionate care.”
My wife worked 35 years with a great FP and personal friend. He retired about 5 years ago. So, we have named another younger MD friend, who will make the call re when to pull the plug or not. We spent about 30 minutes with him. His feelings towards this issue are the same as ours.
There is no financial advantage for him to pull the plug early.
