As many of you know, Kristinn will be holding a press conference outside the Washington Post building about Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley (D) and the Washington Post's role in the MD4Bush saga at 9:30AM. At a minimum, local Baltimore news media are expected to attend.

Please post any news about the press conference here.

Here are some recent FR posts that may be useful for background:

Democrat Official Outed as ‘Sleaze’ Source on Mayor O’Malley: Washington Post Ignored Story It Had
Maryland's O'Malley Affair -- MD4BUSH and Ryan O'Doherty

Stephen Spruiell's National Review Online Article, Political Post - Was the Washington Post used by Democratic operatives in Maryland?, also makes for excellent reading.

MD4Bush Ping!

Over here!

MD-area Freepers - please let us know if you hear anything on WBAL Radio or any other station.

[Mo1]

Is it being aired on TV any where?

[Cagey]

Probably Channel 756 on Baltimore cable. It's a powerful 2 1/2 watt not so clear channel station.

[conservative in nyc]

Is it being aired on TV any where?

I don't know. There was some scuttle yesterday that WBAL Radio will be there and might carry part of it.

[The_Victor]

I bet it'll be aired on the "new media" right here. :)

[TheForceOfOne]

Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley can't stand Chip Franklin.

O'Malley is a Liberal turd of the worst kind, he is planning to run against Governor Maryland Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr. in '06

[cpdiii]

Kristinn kicks liberal butts again, as usual!

[OldFriend]

Kristinn has been a stalwart for the truth for years now.

There really aren't enough ATTA BOYS.....

[conservative in nyc]

No soundbites from the WBAL Radio 10:00AM news break. The news anchor just said that FReepers are marching around the Washington Post HQ. Claiming ties between the Washington Post and MD4Bush.

Thanks, I'll update the Tony Snow thread.

[conservative in nyc]

MD Dem Chair Terry Lierman on WBAL re: MD4Bush - if someone in Democratic party spreading rumors, it would be outrageous, but it's not going to happen. But I don't know who MD4Bush is. I wasn't around...

[conservative in nyc]

By wasn't around, Lierman meant he wasn't chair of the party at the time, I think.

[Mo1]

if someone in Democratic party spreading rumors, it would be outrageous,

Ok .. but what are they going to do about it?

These Dems do this all the time .. look at what they are doing to Mike Steele ..

When is our side going to stand up and say enough is enough

[maggief]

Reported on WBAL: WBAL has a reporter at the WP HQ, expecting him to call in.

[conservative in nyc]

From the Tony Snow thread:

Your 15 minutes.

[Mo1]

Thanks for the heads up

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

Claiming ties between the Washington Post and MD4Bush.

DUH......... WaPo admitted as much!!!!!!!

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

LOL

[conservative in nyc]

WBAL was doing a 60-second lightning round type Q&A with MD Dem Party chief Lierman. They tried to sneak a question in about whether NCPAC/Steffen would get the Libertarian Party line for governor in the last election before the commercial break. Most thought no way before they ran out of time.

[conservative in nyc]

WBAL 10:30AM News Break - Third Story - Demonstration a WaPo. Bloggers accusing paper of complicity re: MDBush. WaPo editors deny. WBAL's Scott Wykoff is covering. No soundbites.

(Note: I don't type fast enough to get a true transcript)

[TheForceOfOne]

I heard it too, you're got it right.

[maggief]

Still waiting for WBAL's Scott Weiskopf to report.

What's the hold up? Is he waiting for 'rat talking points on his Blackberry?

[conservative in nyc]

Ehrlich's Communications director is on WBAL Radio now. Lierman's also still on.

[conservative in nyc]

Weiskopf up.

[conservative in nyc]

Scott Weiskopf - Free Republic talked about why they think should be internal investigation of WaPo of reporting of MD4Bush story.

[conservative in nyc]

Scott Weiskopf - Free Republic WON'T reveal who MD4Bush is. Citing articles in WaPo by editors saying WaPo doesn't know who MD4Bush is. Post's policy is editors must know source. If don't know who MD4Bush is, Post illegally signed on Free Republic under Privacy Act.

[TheForceOfOne]

The Washington Post is cornered like the RATS they're.

[conservative in nyc]

Scott Weiskopf - Going into background re: WaPo. Bottom Line - Free Republic wants internal investigation like NYT and CBS News did. Post didn't follow own standards. Privacy Act may not have been followed.

Chip Franklin explaining IP addresses, and saying MD4Bush has them. Mentioned Jim Robinson.

[Mo1]

just tuned back in .. they are talking about it now

But I need to head out ... grrrrr

Thanks for all your updates

[conservative in nyc]

Chip Franklin - story needs oral sex, otherwise no one will pay attention to it.

Scott Weiskopf off air now.

[Mo1]

radio guy says this story needs oral sex .. otherwise it won't get any attention
