These outlets will have hell to pay when McCain pulls out this election next Tuesday, and their shattered reputations and lost credibility will be their deserved death knell and shame will brand them all forever.
McCain camp demands L.A. Times release video -
Ben Smith's Blog: Politico.com: "John McCain's campaign is demanding that the Los Angeles Times release a video of a party for a prominent Palestinian activist that Barack Obama attended in 2003.
The Times described the going-away party for former University of Chicago professor, and Obama friend, Rashid Khalidi, in a story in April. The story reported that Palestinians thought they might have a friend in Obama because of his friendships in that community, despite the fact that his positions have never been particularly pro-Palestinian.
'A major news organization is intentionally suppressing information that could provide a clearer link between Barack Obama and Rashid Khalidi,' said McCain spokesman Michael Goldfarb, citing Obama's friendship with Khalidi, who is now a professor at Columbia University.
He said the video could, among other things, show how Obama responded to a poem recited at the party accusing Israel of 'terrorism' and warning of consequences for U.S. support for Israel, which Goldfarb described as 'hate speech.'
'The election is one week away, and it's unfortunate that the press so obviously favors Barack Obama that this campaign must publicly request that the Los Angeles Times do its job — make information public,' he said.
The campaign hadn't previously demanded the video, though conservative bloggers have, and neither other reporters nor McCain's researchers have been able to dig up a copy. continued here
