My point is that the very thing the people who advocated blocking Sinclair’s press conference said they feared – widespread media coverage – simply didn’t happen because no credible news outlet would publish those kinds of allegations without first verifying them.
The underlying message I got from the callers and e-mailers was that the First Amendment and free speech are an impediment to the way they think things ought to be. Or that while some people are free to speak, others should not be.
That way of thinking is a lot scarier than allegations from Larry Sinclair.
I'd say it's less the desire of media outlets not wanting to air somebody's grievances because of questions about that person's credibility than it is the media are going to refuse to seriously vet Obama until the convention is over with and there is no turning back by the Democrats.
According to Sinclair's blog, he is doing okay and expects to be back. He says the charge is bullshit.
Of course it is. I hope the dipshits on that one blog get into trouble over their stupidity in trying to silence him. Dumb, dumb, dumb. They just gave Sinclair even MORE notoriety.
