The McCain NYT Story: Smear or Huge Smear? Story at 11. |
|
Ever get the sense that our esteemed MSM just can't help themselves when it comes to St. John, the Maverick? The coverage I've seen today is pretty lame.

3. That's basically my point. |
|
If you remove the sex aspect entirely, it's still a major scandal. It's about favoritism, nothing more. They could just be good friends for all I care.

I'm not one for tin-foil theories, but it seems so convenient that a lot of the McCain haters came out to support him today. :thumbsdown:

6. The media isn't interested in the real story |
|
which is at best ethical violations; at worst, corruption. That's because they either don't understand it, or aren't interested. Regardless, they'll make the sexual aspect the story.
