MSM Tries To Explain Away Edwards Story Silence With More BS

All the MSM biggies tried to act reflective upon themselves regarding the burying of the Edwards story for 8 months, acting and pontificating as if this was some terrible heart wrenching decision to make for this reason or that reason, when common sense which they and most liberals lack told all that they buried it so spare Edwards the turmoil and didn't want to blow the Dem chances of the White House int he fall.

That is why they did it and nothing more complicated is needed to be contemplated, pure partisanship was to blame and they know it.

Here's just two at the top of the slime heap, as CNN's mea culpa BS is directly below, while the NY Times had their little effort in Saturdays paper that can be read below the CNN bag of lies:

Political blogs, some cable networks and a few newspapers reported on it — or, more accurately, reported on The Enquirer reporting on it.
