Wow. I thought "journalism" couldn't sink any lower than Rolling Stone magazine.

I stand corrected.

Wow the least the Globe could have done was to call it an “assisted stumble”.

Nah. The Boston Glob is undiluted truth, as pure as the driven snow. Just ask any Romney basher!

OK whether he stumbled or even if he took a dive on purpose, HE WAS BEING BLOCKED by Meehan. The “dirty trick” here is that it was caught on video.

Isn’t this the same reporter that Scozzafava had arrested for asking tough questions ?
Claimed harassment or intimidation, IIRC.

Weekly Standard reporter says he was pushed by Coakley aide


WTF?!

Reporter falls, clashes with aide while trying to question Democrat seeking Kennedy’s old seat
By Associated Press

January 13, 2010 | 9:32 a.m.

BOSTON (AP) — A reporter trying to question the Democrat seeking to replace Edward Kennedy in the Senate has been involved in a scuffle with one of her aides.

John McCormack of the Weekly Standard fell Tuesday night as he tried to speak with state Attorney General Martha Coakley. He was simultaneously videotaping her and trying to pass a metal grate on a Washington sidewalk.

Photos and video show Coakley aide Michael Meehan trying to help McCormack up. A scuffle broke out as Meehan tried to block McCormack and determine whether he was an operative of a rival campaign.

Coakley is shown ignoring McCormack.

The trip to Washington is being criticized because Coakley is seeking money from lobbyists as polls show a tightening race.

Rush just reported that the Boston Globe has pulled the story he read and replaced it with a different (more accurate) version.
