Right... and if Edwards were a Republican they would've printed it immediately.

Without witnesses, documents, photographs or some form of irrefutable evidence pointing to the truth, news organizations will not endanger their own integrity. OMG! LOL ROFL and all the rest...
Did they actually write that with a straight face.

But it was really easy for them to try to disprove the story.
One has to be brain dead, i.e. a democrat, to not see the political bias of the media.

National Enquire didnt have any problem tracing phone records.
Lets just see if they will do the foot work on the new information NE is following.
The money trail, 3 million digs for the woman and the guy who is claiming to be the father also admitting to receiving large sums of money.

“Without witnesses, documents, photographs or some form of irrefutable evidence pointing to the truth, news organizations will not endanger their own integrity.”
I’d like to know what ‘news organizations’ this statement is referring to. ABC, CNN, CBS, PBS, MSNBC, NBC, the NYT, the LAT, AP, Reuters, Time, Newsweek, etc. have not endangered their integrity; they prostituted it.

Please..someone make the list of repubs in the last 20 years that have been assaulted by the drive-by media. Some were guilty, some were innocent. ALL were hounded and accused by the msm.

That made it difficult to prove and to print the rumors that John Edwards had cheated on his seriously ill wife while running for president. Reporters were left to poke around the edges of a potentially career-ending scandal in search of an opening. Who was feeding this story to the press to start with? Who put the woman up in hotels? John McCain wouldn't consider Edwards for a VP slot - and the "press" refused to look at a rape charge against Clinton - much worse than a one night stand. So who pushed this story? Who whispered rumors and passed out the hints? And why?

AP's approach: 'Better to get it right even if we couldn't get it first' Yeah, sure you turd polishers. Your buddies at the New York Times certainly ran the flimsy McCain affair with Vicki Iseman story.
To: jerod
Right... and if Edwards were a Republican they would've printed it immediately. BINGO!!

The MSM of today waits for press releases - that is their idea of investigating a story.
