Oh, I see*. Allen said "macaca" more than once at ONE event.

And that justifies a massive smear job by the WAPO? I'd be willing to bet that this is an unprecedented smear job considering there really was nothing remotely racist. And Allen has no history of racism or any other type of similar dirty tricks. Surely nothing that justifies 160+ articles by one major paper alone.

<< "And don't even act like Dems have never been slammed in the press." >>

I didn't ask you whether or not that ever happened. I asked you:
    Can you name one similar instance where, in the heat of an
    election campaign, the WAPO or any other major MSM outlet 
    went screaming yellow zonkers over something a well known 
    Dem politician said that turned out to be a trivial 
    matter, yet they just kept on pounding away with an 
    obvious smear campaign?
And no, the Monica Lewinsky case is not remotely close a massive smear job by the MSM. Hell, they were in the tank big time for Clinton until Clinton's lies began to unravel. And even then, the MSM never lied, misled, distorted or smeared Clinton. If anything the opposite was true they covered up for him in a big way thoroughly misleading the public of the real facts. But they sure smear that Ken Star big time, now didn't they?

* BTW, you didn't document anything. I have to take your word as gospel (sans any evidence - again).
