LA Times hides damaging video of Obama

The LA Times has admitted that it possesses a video of Barack Obama cheerfully attending a radical Muslim meeting at which the speakers hurled the usual violent and threatening invective at Jews and at Israel.  Also attending were Ayers and Dohrn.

One might think that, given next week’s election, the LA Times, which is another failing old media outlet, would have a scoop here and publish it, both to increase its circulation and so that people could make up their own minds about Obama’s beliefs and affiliations.  The Times, however, has refused to do so, apparently for fear that it could harm Obama’s chances in the upcoming election.

As Charles Johnson says, if this is true, “this is media malfeasance of an almost astounding degree. They have a video that could change the stakes in this election and they’re hiding it. And they’ve been hiding it since last April.”  The fact that the Times is standing there doing nothing even as it holds actual news (not just the usual puff pieces) is shocking and should change immediately.

Since we know, though, that the LA Times will do nothing, rather than see the Obamessiah go down in well-deserved, it’s up to us to do something:  If you’re a blogger, blog.  If you’re an emailer, email.  And whatever else you do, let the Times know what you think.

   And if you’re a thief, by all means, thieve it!

   I’m not sure contacting the LA Times itself will do much good. Might be more useful to contact Sam Zell, who control’s the newspaper’s parent company–suppressing news like this probably isn’t doing much for the value of his investment and the ability to pay off the company’s large debt burden.

   Book,

   Shocking story — However, maybe not for the LA Times.

   I have cross posted yours with mine about a dreadful MP3 audio detailing an interview with Obama voters.

   It is indeed revealing.

   Let the Time’s advertisers know what you think. The LA times and their editors couldn’t give a fig what you, the target of their propaganda, thinks. Your thoughts, after all, only matter if they choose for it to matter.

   But they cannot shun the importance of money that easily.
