Scroll For Updates..LA Times: Our source for the Khalidi tape made us promise not to release it

Posted by on 10/28/2008

Background info was posted here.  As of today, this is the status: “The Los Angeles Times did not publish the videotape because it was provided to us by a confidential source who did so on the condition that we not release it,” said the newspaper’s editor, Russ Stanton. “The Times keeps its promises to sources.”

Why would the source give the tape to the newspaper if it was never intended to be made public?

Take a look at what he has to say!  He uses rough language, but you get the point.

I guess Politico answered the question of why the tape isn’t being released:

“Responsible editors would be foolish not to ask themselves the bias question, especially in the closing days of an election.

But, having asked it, our sincere answer is that of the factors driving coverage of this election ” and making it less enjoyable for McCain to read his daily clip file than for Obama ” ideological favoritism ranks virtually nil:

If that causes skeptics to scoff, perhaps they would find it more satisfying to hear that the reason ideological bias matters so little is that other biases matter so much more.”
Forget the Internet, Let the ‘Established’ Media Tell you About it? I think not!

    McCain / Palin has fought an uphill battle the entire time. The media bias towards Obama is soo very obvious and statistically proven. This is truly the year that Journalism Died in America. Those on the Right will not forget those media outlets who have done this, you liberal F*cking B*stards.
