Prior to Lewinski being outed I was in LA on business and saw a Local station spike the Brodderick story, about a year before we knew her name.

I got out of work, went back to the Hotel. Turn on the News, and they say “News at 5:00, this man (I think showing still photo of Broddericks Friend) says Clinton raped some woman. Stay tuned for details”. So I then watch the local broadcast to completion, and never saw the story. I then knew that there was a rape victim and the story was being spiked. It was shocking. Never forgot it, and When Broderick came out a year later, I thought, wow, she was the one.

I guarantee Clintons people called the station and threatened them, and that's why the story got yanked.

NBC Dateline with Lisa Meyers covered it. I thought she did a real good coverage of it

I remember Fred Barnes and Brit Hume wearing "Free Lisa Meyers" buttons on air.

Of course, NBC waited until TV Guide was already printed and did not announce that Dateline would air the story until the morning of....making it too late even for the newspapers and on-screen cable/satellite guides.

Then they put it up against the Grammys.... effectively killing the story while still being able to say, "Hey....we aired it!".

You’re exactly on target with this comment. Calling it the “birth record” is positive spin in that it sounds “official”. It serves to reinforce the previous narrative which liberals and even some conservatives bought - hook, line and sinker.

The most interesting part of this “revelation” by MSNBC is that they didn’t bother to cover the fact that OBAMA has NEVER released the long form BC but has in fact spent BIG MONEY not to. If they were truly “journalists” they’d be all over that aspect of the story.

From Drudge:

“{NBC NEWS executives are washing Juanita Broaddrick right out of their hair. NBC NEWS has issued an order restricting the use of Juanita Broaddrick’s DATELINE interview, it has been learned. Effective March 1 at 12:01 AM, NBC outlets will be restricted from using the exclusive Broaddrick footage. “No wonder the White House isn’t concerned, no one will see her anymore,” one frustrated MSNBC anchor said off-the-air. MSNBC and CNBC producers will have to work through NBC lawyers, on a case by case basis, to receive authorization to use any of the Lisa Myers/Broaddrick session. NBC NEWS President Andy Lack could not be reached for comment on Sunday”

.....and they effectively killed the story. Jaunita was raped twice by Clinton.

“Connecticut Rep. Chris Shays said on a talk radio show Wednesday that, based on secret evidence he reviewed during the impeachment controversy, he believes President Clinton raped Juanita Broaddrick, not once, but twice.

Talk-show host Tom Scott of Clear Channel Broadcasting, New Haven (WELI 960) asked Shays about the mysterious impeachment “evidence room,” prompting the GOP moderate to say that Broaddrick “disclosed that she had been raped, not once, but twice” to Judiciary Committee investigators.

Shays, who is often hailed by the New York Times for his independent judgment and good sense, found the evidence compelling:

“I believed that he had done it. I believed her that she had been raped 20 years ago. And it was vicious rapes, it was twice at the same event.” Asked point blank if the president is a rapist, Shays said, “I would like not to say that it way. But the bottom line is that I believe that he did rape Broaddrick.”

And Shays voted against impeachment!

Wasn’t the blonde on the PMSNBC morning show, Mika, getting her talking points on her blackberry directly from the WH?

The story they will give will no doubt be directly from the WH.

Remember that PMSNBC is going to be presenting this story. Don’t get any hopes up that it will be done with any semblance of journalistic integrity. MSNBC has been holding Obama’s pi$$ bucket from the beginning.

While YOU may wish to promote shep’s program and denigrate Beck, the numbers just are not what you say they are.

According to Nielsen, the top five cable news programs in terms of total viewers and viewers 25-54 (the metric used by advertisers and considered the most important by networks) were all on Fox: The O’Reilly Factor (781,000 viewers 25-54); Hannity (585,000); Glenn Beck (572,000); On the Record (481,000); and The O’Reilly Factor repeat (447,000).

So, why do you promote such falsehoods on FR?

It’s unbelievable how the so called media is covering up for their fellow travelers in office. Most probably weren’t even threatened.

They won’t once make the distinction between Natural Born Citizen and a regular Citizen, then they’ll “prove” that Obama is a regular Citizen.
I'll join you in that prognostication. The same tired out old meme once again.

And don't forget the other tried and true meme...he's posted his birth certificate online.

To a liberal, a conclusion IS a fact.

Wisely said!

amazingly, matthews has already shown a long form from someone born a few days apart from obama’s date, and asked why obama just doesn’t release the thing.

Michelle Malkin surprises me. She’s one person I would have thought would be all over this.

I would have thought they would have done this much earlier. Shouldn’t be too much of a problem. The dems are so corrupt in all their ways!

Guess I should have put the /s after my remark. I’m not at all hopeful about the outcome of their investigation.
