MEDIA BLACKOUT
"In 'Something New Here,' I laid out Barack Obama's ties to the far-left New Party," Stanley Kurtz writes at National Review Online (www.nationalreview.com).
"Blogger Trevor Loudon, of New Zeal, did the pioneering work on this issue. Today, Loudon has posted good quality scans of New Party documents and pictures confirming Obama's membership. We've seen most of this information before (although only recently), but never so clearly," Mr. Kurtz said.
"With all its lengthy background pieces, has the New York Times ever noted that Barack Obama was endorsed by, and was a member of, the New Party? What about The Washington Post? Has any major television network, any national news magazine, or any major daily newspaper ever mentioned that Barack Obama was endorsed by, or was a member of, the New Party?
"If any such outlet has ever mentioned that fact, have they ever gone on to explain in any depth exactly what the New Party was? For example, have they laid out the extremely close ties between the New Party in Chicago and ACORN? Especially with issue of Obama's ties to ACORN so much in the news, isn't this a major story right now?" |
