SAVANNAH, Tenn. -- A representative of Vice President Al Gore's campaign, Doug Hattaway, has been calling media outlets across west Tennessee attempting to stop coverage of last week's series of WorldNetDaily reports detailing allegations of political corruption by Gore and his close friends and supporters in Tennessee.
WMC-TV in Memphis and WBBJ-TV in Jackson, Tenn. both shot interviews with the reporters -- and then killed the stories at the last minute with no explanation.
Meanwhile Gore's ally and supporter, Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director Larry Wallace, is scouring the TBI in an attempt to locate WorldNetDaily.com's sources for its three-part series of reports.
In Part 1 of its series, WorldNetDaily documented allegations that Gore's uncle and confidant, retired judge Whit LaFon, has been targeted as an alleged drug trafficker by federal and state law enforcement officials in Tennessee. Part 2 detailed allegations that Gore has routinely relied on Wallace, a long time friend and supporter, to "take care" of criminal matters involving Gore's family and friends. In Part 3, WND detailed allegations by senior Tennessee law enforcement officials that Gore killed a major drug-trafficking investigation in their state that allegedly implicated several of Gore's long-time friends and supporters.
