So I was down in DC this past weekend and happened to run into a well-connected media person, who told me flatly, unequivocally that “everyone knows” The LA Times was sitting on a story, all wrapped up and ready to go about what is a potentially devastating sexual scandal involving a leading Presidential candidate. “Everyone knows” meaning everyone in the DC mainstream media political reporting world. “Sitting on it” because the paper couldn’t decide the complex ethics of whether and when to run it. The way I heard it they’d had it for a while but don’t know what to do. The person who told me )not an LAT person) knows I write and didn’t say “don’t write about this”.

They must mean Democrat or they wouldn't sit on the story.

So who do we all think we're talking about here?

Fred Thompson?
Roooodi Giuliani?
Mitt Romney?

It must be a Democrat or they would have run it already...

[CT-Freeper]

I think it’s a Republican, or they wouldn’t have mentioned it at all...it’d be shredded without a second thought..

Or it could be a Republican and they are waiting to see if he gets the nomination and then nail him.

I've got $5 that says it is a story claiming that Hillary is straight.

Hillary and Huma sittin’ in a tree.

[Spok]

I don’t understand the ethical dilema-if it’s about a Republican, they’ll run it. If it’s a Democrat, they’ll spike it. If it’s about Hillary, they’ll discredit and destroy the source.

[NRA2BFree]

It must be the rumors about John Edwards and the woman who worked on his campaign! IF it were a Republican, it would be splattered in every media source in America!

[mojito]

The LA Times is wringing their hands about the “complex ethics”? Hmmmm...what causes liberals to wring their hands like this? My guess: Obama.

Or, it’s a Republican and they’re waiting till election eve.

[liberty or death]

Probably what they’re doing right now.Discredit, Deflect,Destroy. If that doesn’t work they can accidentally shoot themselves in the back.

[juliej]

If it is a Republican, they will wait the night before the election to run it as they did with the Bush/drunk driving story so that there will be no time to answer it. That is how the MSM works.

[liberty or death]

He was told it was not the Edwards rumor.
