If so, what is her occupation?

how are they squelching conspiracy theories, and what would be the alternative, encouraging conspiracy theories?

It looks like the MSM just wants to boil it down to a "sex scandal" and put the story to rest - put it behind us. This is what I mean by "squelching" this story.

I would just like to see the MSM look at this from a broader view and perhaps 'connect the dots'. I just want journalists to be journalists and follow up on the various aspects of this story.

Granted some of what we are hearing and reading may just be wishful thinking on the part of some of us here on DU. On the other hand - there seems to be an aura of a manufactured scandal to take out the President. This aura is reminiscent of Repug dirty tricks of the past. And call me a conspiracy theorist if you will - when I see a picture of Rove with the mistress - I guess I get a little suspicious. When an FBI informant comes to Eric Cantor and spills the beans and Cantor doesn't blow open this story - I get a little suspicious.

The turds are still shell shocked

She's very shady, imo.
