12. You really would think they'd get a clue, don't you?
I mean, this thing is spreading like wildfire amongst both left and right communities.
People are reporting here that they discovered, after spending time with their families, that the average Joe and Jill know about this, despite the virtual blackout in MSM coverage.
This is being e-mailed, talked about at water coolers and Christmas parties and jabbered about online at all hours of the day and night.
Yet, any attempts by the MSM to cover it (KO exception noted) have been half-assed and dismissive.
What's going to happen when Kerry files this thing and it explodes in the American public's face like an over-heated egg souffle? How are the bean-counters in these corporate organizations going to justify their ratings drops as people become more and more aware that the MSM has kept important news from them whilst covering Scott Peterson or Brittany Spears or Anna Nicole Smith?
You'd think that the MSM would realize they should cover their butts for financial reasons, if not for a sense of democracy - but they haven't.
