For Those "That Don't Do Blogs"

Perhaps you ought? There's a reason people are reporting they are getting more of their news online. Consider this post about the deafening silence from the MSM regarding an Obama appointee withdrawal:

So Why DID H. Rodgin Cohen Withdraw as Treasury’s No. 2? Press Is Curiously Not Curious

There seems to be a wall of silence surrounding the sudden withdrawal of H. Rodgin Cohen (pictured at right) from consideration for the Number 2 job at the Treasury Department.

The party line, according to ABC’s This Week host and former Clinton administration adviser George Stephanopoulos, is that “an issue arose in the final stages of the vetting process.” David Cho at the Washington Post reports that “two sources familiar with the matter” confirmed this, but that they “declined to identify the reason.”

Perhaps the press is not really interested in finding out that reason, or reasons. Or worse, they’ve got a pretty good idea, and they’d rather not dig; because if they don’t dig, they won’t have to tell us. Stephanopoulos appears to be giving away that he knows more than he’s willing to reveal when he writes that “Cohen has been a counsel to just about every major player on Wall Street, which perhaps complicated his nomination.”

“Perhaps”? A review of some of Cohen’s known history makes it clear that he carries quite a bit of potentially heavy baggage.

All I had to do is a Googe Web search on “Rodgin Cohen” (in quotes) to find these two items at the sixth and seventh listings:

It doesn't matter if one is for or against what the administration is doing, one needs to know what they are doing or not doing...

ahh nice find

Thank you. Interesting how so many intelligent people on the left just find the blogs, so low class. Perhaps because they are reporting real news, that the MSM doesn't?

I don't think they teach investigative reporting anymore. LOL

gotta love that title on the story though

"Online News Sources Seen As Reliable As Local Papers"

i gotta say i have to agree with that
they are about as reliable
meaning, neither really are anymore
