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.

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.

The MSM cannot be trusted with the news anymore. The news they print is fake, and the real news is suppressed.

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.)

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.

breitbart ^ | 102708 | ap

Posted on Monday, October 27, 2008 12:34:29 PM by VU4G10

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.

The media is not supposed to “suppress” the news. They are supposed to report the news. Just shows how far they have sunk. If they relent and give it out at the end of the week it will be to late for the information to get out to the voters majority of the voters.

TEXT Of MY EMAIL MESSAGE to THE EDITOR (offered for what it's worth):

Your suppression of this video is beneath contempt. A democratic society demands the free exchange of ideas — as “journalists” you should know this. The people of this democracy deserve better from a group that we have granted special rights and protections. The role of the First Amendment isn't to protect journalists; it is to protect the rights of ALL people to have access to information they need to participate in the democratic process. By suppressing this video — you subvert everything the first amendment is about. For shame.

I just left a voice message for Peter Wallsten demanding he release the tapes. He is in the Washington Bureau of the LA Times and he wrote the original story about the dinner honoring the PLO leader.

His phone number is 202-824-8376. His Cell number is 202-441-1940. Call him and demand he release the incriminating tapes of Obama with Rashid Khalidi.
The media has no problem releasing info on Joe the plumber. Their right to privacy is now null and void.

When you contact the newspapers remind them that under a communist government ALL the newspapers are shutdown and all the media outlets taken over. Not that it would be a big change or anything, but I guess they would have to take paycuts. :)

btt — this is important freepers — this story alone could turn the Jewish vote in a HUGE HUGE way — making Florida a much easier case for McCain — and even helping in states like Ohio, PA and VA (North Eastern VA)

IMHO — getting this tape out there is the singel most useful thing we can pursue btwn now and the election — the tape DEFINATELY exists, it ios VERY damaging and we know (at least one group) who has it...

forget birth certificates, Michelle Obama tapes and the like — they may be real stories (i for one believe)— but this is the the one we can get in the next 8 days — so lets push!

The question is who owes Hillary at the L.A. Times and when do they comply and release this Sunday or Monday just like the GWB DWI thing in 2000.....
