This is Marxism at work, we will all be herded into pens after Jan. 20th!
BTTT
Good work! I bet they did.
This cannot just disappear. If the MSM and Obama are both discredited in one fell swoop, all the better.
We now know that we CANNOT trust the media - they admit it themselves!
I guess we can’t have that pesky truth-seeking internet crashing Obama’s party.
Yeah? So what about the one that was posted a few days later that said they HAD met?
So were they sloppy reporters then, or liars now?
I am reminded of the frequent repainting of the barn wall in Orwell’s Animal Farm. This is frightening.
We need a storehouse/thread with all the super secret archived material! ;)
Welcome to “1984”.
My email to the News Tip/Request for coverage email.
Request for coverage:
From your recently recanted article page:
KHQA TV wishes to offer clarification regarding a story that appeared last month on our website ConnectTristates.com. The story, which discussed the appointment of a replacement for President Elect Obamain the U.S. Senate, became the subject of much discussion on talk radio and on blog sites Wednesday.
The story housed in our website archive was on the morning of November 5, 2008. It suggested that a meeting was scheduled later that day between President Elect Obama and Illinois Governor Blagojevich. KHQA has no knowledge that any meeting ever took place. Governor Blagojevich did appear at a news conference in Chicago on that date.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
So my question is from the news article from your site several days LATER on November 8, 2008 discussing the meeting that HAD TAKEN PLACE. When talking about Duckworth.
My question being, were you just sloppy and lazy reporters? Or liars?
Thank you,

Rewriting history. How Orwellian.
I don’t have personal knowledge of whether they actually met or not. The article I posted indicates that the meeting was supposed to take place the afternoon the story was published. If you’ve got evidence the meeting actually took place, lets have the link, eh?
The problem is that there is no source and within the bounds of reason to assume she just made it up to make a good story.
It is reasonable to assume it is not true when there is no confirmation elsewhere.
Moreover the popular fascination with politics, and the political press are both, as I recollect, American innovations.
It's not for nothing that First Amendment, as is the rest of that Bill of Rights. The Founders and the public then at the founding wanted to protect certain distinctly American innovations in civil society.
Not particular presses, nor religions, but to ensure access by all citizens to the press, to religions and religious practices, to all the arms of a military and navy, to jury trials, etc. A level of un-infringed liberty in access to all of those, founded on a special brotherhood of trust in fellow Americans -- that was the uniqueness.
But that NEVER meant a "free press" in the sense you lament. The press all always been highly biased, and always forms alliances with power.
What are the odds bookmark for later.
It is possible she made that up, in which case she should be fired. It is also true that the press has covered up an inconvenient story, inconvenient for Zero, that is. This story doesn’t say they met, but since what it does say doesn’t support the party line, the loyal minions are making it disappear.
Great catch!
