The Times Leaks on Arnold (Now he's totally peed off!!)

The LA Weekly ^ | Oct 3 - 9 , 03 | by Bill Bradley

[Truth666]

In another intriguing bit of Times reporting, Schwarzenegger’s huge rally Sunday outside the state Capitol was not referenced until the 18th paragraph of Monday’s story. The rally was twice as large as the 5,000 people reported by the Times.
California witnesses the largest fraud ever in a democracy (prophetic)
Polls : Polls help scripts come true. Example : "43% want to keep Davis" (SURVEY USA, 10/6/03) .
Facts about Davis rallies : Davies is not able to gather anything that even slightly resembles a crowd in his rallies. For instance a total of 35 supporters showed up to hear Davis at Long Beach. From footage I estimate that there were no more than 300 people at his final rally.
Facts about the electoral process : machines (touch-screen) to make even the most unbelievable of scripts come true
Prediction : we are about to witness the largest electoral fraud that ever took place in a democracy.
Explanation : the last minute stories will be used to justify the "results". But I also think that it is the tacit acceptance of such polls that lays the basis for the coming fraud counting the votes.
No THAT is intriguing : Schwarzenegger is not that different from Davies. So what's the reason for the Democrats to push the fraud to this extent ?

Saw Zack on FNC last night. Big hypocrite. Clinton's groping, etc. was brought up to him. No problem!

I guess it's fine to watch someone get mugged and not call it in to authorities... as long as the mugger shares the loot with you from the robbed man.

Arnold has been mugged, smeared, distorted, belittled, downplayed, castigated, demonized and downright hated.
Right here on FR.
All because he's not Tom McClintock.
If he wins today...and that's a very big IF, he will have the chance to prove what many of us have known all along.
He's absolutely the best man right now for California.

If he loses, I won't be blaming Gray Davis or the LA Times.

Maybe all these make-believe stories are in the LA Times because Southern California is crawling with so many unemployed make-up artists.

I grew up in the LA area and have read the LA Times my entire life. Believe it or not, until the mid 60's the Times was a very conserative paper. I remember my dad would follow their recommendations when he voted and dad was as conservative as they come. The Chandler family controlled the paper until they sold out to the Tribune a few years ago. As an example the Chandlers were very anti union and there have been various violent union protests over the years. But when the long time publisher Norman Chandler retired in the late 50's, his young son Otis took the reins. He was in his thirties and wanted to make the Times into a great (meaning liberal) newspaper. The Times began paying very high salaries, for the newspaper business, and as a result attracted a lot of reporters and executives from the eastern liberal newpapers. In the 60's and 70's the the paper gradually became a very liberal paper like it is today. As I understand it much of the Chandler family was not happy with the liberal leanings of the paper but none of them succesfully challenged Otis. Besides the paper was and is the dominate paper in LA and as LA grew rapidly after the war, the paper continued to grow and it was making a lot of money for the family. There must be some Freepers out there that remember the Times from the old days.

Interesting. It reads like a passage from 'LA Confidential' Cool post.

Hm.

Do you suppose any of that was in the "Removed by Moderator" posts that dotted that thread?
