Al Gore, Slumlord? Friday night, Nashville's CBS affiliate, WTVF-TV, ran a story on how a family renting a house for $400 a month on Al Gore?s property in Smith County, Tennessee had been evicted by a management company employed by Gore, after complaining about backed up toilets and clogged sink drains that were never fixed. "If this had been a Republican, people would have been crying slumlord?," observed a liberal pundit Sunday morning.

The AP picked up on the TV news story on Saturday and the revelation became Kate O'Beirne's "Outrage of the Week" on CNN?s Capital Gang Saturday night. Fox News Sunday panelists discussed it Sunday morning, but otherwise the broadcast networks ignored it: Not a word Saturday or Sunday night on the ABC, CBS or NBC evening shows, nor on their Sunday interview shows, even after an embarrassed Gore on Saturday satisfied the family by cancelling the eviction order, agreeing to fix the problems and inviting them over to his neighboring house for dinner.
