2. The NY Times placed the stories about the Holocaust way-y-y down in the paper, too

Short stories that were seldom run. The Times had good enough reporting that they could have reported the story much more prominently.

3. Yah, LA Times put it deep in section one too. nt

[Moochy]

4. NPR's Hourly News

Their Announcer Karl Cassel(?) said that Conyers "asked" rove to appear. I guess we NPR listeners are too darn dumb to know what a subpoena might be?

Thanks, Corporation for Public Broadcasting for dumbing it down and to the right a notch.

9. they recognize that nothing will come of it.

[ooglymoogly]

10. They realize nothing will come of it because they, the media,

will continue to bury these infamous stories and make certain nothing comes of it unless it has something to do with a dem and then they can and will blow it out of all perorations.

16. Just another day...

13. Not really news until the Dems show that they're serious

The Times is right- Congress has no credibility- and doesn't deserve any coverage t this point.

14. Jut the lower jaw out confidently?

Flare nostrils??
