Why isn't the MSM reporting Colbert's speech... er, Rove indictment?

Edited on Sun May-14-06 12:24 PM by johnaries

If it's not on TV, it can't be true, right? The TO story can't be true if it hasn't been reported on the MSM. They've never buried a story before, right?

Is this emoticon even necessary? :sarcasm:

What short memories some of us have. Think about how many important true stories were broken on the Internet and ignored as long as possible by the M$M.

3. Yes, for more than a few days. How many days since the TO

article came out? one. Has the M$M ignored articles for longer than one day, especially during the weekend? Many times.

2. That's so true

The MSM has held back any number of times, until word spreads around the internet, and they have no other choice but to report the situation themselves. What was the scandal that the NYT sat on til after the 2004 election? I don't remember which one it was (there have been so many), but I remember us being angry that it didn't come out til after the elections.
