We’re calling on LGF readers to contact the Los Angeles Times and their advertisers to demand that the Times release the videotape they are concealing, showing Barack Obama at a party with radical Palestinian activists, Bill Ayers, and Bernardine Dohrn, being praised by former PLO spokesman Rashid Khalidi.
They’re stonewalling, and giving people who contact them the runaround.
Please note: the existence of the tape is not in doubt; Peter Wallsten of the Los Angeles Times explicitly wrote that the Times had a copy of the tape, in an article about Obama’s ties to Rashid Khalidi: Allies of Palestinians see a friend in Barack Obama.
At Khalidi’s going-away party in 2003, the scholar lavished praise on Obama, telling the mostly Palestinian American crowd that the state senator deserved their help in winning a U.S. Senate seat. “You will not have a better senator under any circumstances,” Khalidi said.
The event was videotaped, and a copy of the tape was obtained by The Times.
The Los Angeles Times is hiding a potentially explosive video of a presidential candidate, during the final days of an election.
This is brazen, unethical media malfeasance.
Don’t let them get away with it.
Contact the Los Angeles Times.
Contact their advertisers.
More on the Obama tape the LA TIMES is holding and efforts to end their spiking of the story. I was also told Laura Ingram was on this one.
Done.
Try floating a “some speculate that...” story implying maybe the L.A. Times is being threatened by the Obama campaign, directly or indirectly. They will have to give a legitimate reason, release the story or make it appear they are under some sort of duress-implied or otherwise. It seems like a win-win.

In bringing professor Khalidi to Morningside Heights from the University of Chicago, Columbia also got itself a twofer of Palestinian activism and advocacy. Mr. Khalidi’s wife, Mona, who also served in Beirut as chief editor of the English section of the WAFA press agency, was hired as dean of foreign students at Columbia’s SIPA, working under Dean Anderson. In Chicago, the Khalidis founded the Arab American Action Network, and Mona Khalidi served as its president. A big farewell dinner was held in their honor by AAAN with a commemorative book filled with testimonials from their friends and political allies. These included the left wing anti-war group Not In My Name, the Electronic Intifada, and the ex-Weatherman domestic terrorists Bernadine Dohrn and Bill Ayers. (There were also testimonials from then-state Senator Barack Obama and the mayor of Chicago.)

Here I made a petition

The 877 number was the more appropriate one. The next number was for a fax, and the 3rd had to do with the delivery of the paper. But thanks for listing that first one. I did leave a message.
Sam Zell the Chicago real estate billionare bought the LA Times last year.

Maybe one of the about to be fired/laid off LA Slimer or one who has been laid off will provide Utube and the McCain people with this tape.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Newsroom staffing at the Los Angeles Times is shrinking again. Newspaper spokeswoman Nancy Sullivan said Monday that 75 staffers are being laid off in the latest round of cuts.
She declined further comment and would not disclose how many journalists will remain at the paper.
Is there a way to find out who their top advertisers are, by dollar?
The LASlimes is owned by Sam Zell.
We need to go to the top and contact him or make a big stink about it. He is a conservative.
he was once on CNBC where Jack Welch said something about Zell’s wife generally canceling out his vote and Zell said
” Oh in spades in spades, it’s aweful but I’ve been working on my wife for the last 12 years and I gotta tell you I’m making progress “
” You know logic can overcome liberalism “
Conservative my a$$.
Zell endorsed Obama.
BTTT
bump
So, what is Zell? A libertarian?
I only said he was a conservative because of that CNBC interview of what he said about his wife and liberalism.
Well I have only one term for anyone who supports Obama.
Un-American traitor.
That work for you?
