6. Wow, what a slanted and selective article!
The scandal, far from being newly discovered as is intimated in this article, has been known for over a year and was the reason the Liberals were only able to form a minority government.

As to the US blog 'forcing' Justice Gomery to lift his ban, what a crock that is. The Canadian media had requested a lifting of the ban prior to the blog, which aided someone in Canada to breach Canadian law and unethically report the testimony of one of the witnesses and Gomery had said he would decide after the testimony how much of the testimony could be made public and not affect the witness's upcoming criminal trial. Gomery did exactly that, look at the testimony and then release that which did not directly relate to the criminal trial.

The scandal IS big in Canada but it would be refreshing if the media outside of Canada would make an attempt, at least, to get the facts. A forlorn hope on my part, for sure.
