LAT Gags Blogs: In a move that has apparently stirred up some internal discontent, the Los Angeles Times has banned its bloggers , including political bloggers, from mentioning the Edwards/Rielle Hunter story. Even bloggers who want to mention the story in order to make a skeptical we-don't-trust-the-Enquirer point are forbidden from doing so. Kausfiles has obtained a copy of the email Times bloggers received from editor Tony Pierce. [I've excised the recipient list and omitted Pierce's email address]:

The socialist rag L.A. Times is total crap!.....

It was commented on KFI several days ago the LA Times wouldn’t carry any John Edwards allegations, because they also sat on Mejor Villaracistas infidelities.

And they wonder why people don’t subscribe?

Toes.

Tapping.

Nuff said?

The L.A. Times has been reduced to a second rate socialist daily sheet. It’s seems about 1/8 the size it was just a few years ago....

Yeah, this’ll really help Edwards. Especially now since FOX News has confirmed the story: That Edwards and riehl were at the hotel, Edwards confrontation, etc.

There will be no woman alive, dhim or Pub that will not want to throw this POS in the gutter after this...

A Beverly Hills hotel security guard told FOXNews.com he intervened this week between a man he identified as former Sen. John Edwards and tabloid reporters who chased down the former presidential hopeful after what they’re calling a rendezvous with his mistress and love child.

“What are they saying about me?” the guard said Edwards asked.

“His face just went totally white,” the guard said, when Edwards was told the reporters were shouting out questions about Edwards and Ri
