Parlock Fraud And Media Hypocrisy.
If this whole Parlock story is proved (I believe it is) fraudulent, does that discredit every media outlet who ran with the picture and story? He has done this three times in as many elections and the media never caught on. It seems to me that if we apply the same standards to the outlets that ran this photo as everyone else is to CBS and the TANG memos we can only conclude that they are Right-wing shills, rags or what ever you want to call them. Where are the calls for a congressional investigation?

1. Let's give them a chance to correct the record
They were taken in by a fraud. Will they correct the record? Let's send them the links with the background information and see what they do.

2. You Are Correct.
I'm just getting the idea out there. On the TANG/CBS thing; I am starting to see some defense of CBS based on that same approach, "they were taken in by a fraud". We will see if it works or not.

3. Are Parlock and his little blonde daughter just more red meat thrown out
to general public to distract from bush's glaring weaknesses?

(I agree with an earlier DU poster who said having pix of a little blonde girl being man-handled at Edward's rally could dilute the effect pix of Edwards with his kids has - esp ones of him and his daughter)

The less talk there is of bush, the easier for him to slime his way through as a legitimate candidate.

People have debunked Parlock and thanks to their efforts any of us can pull up the synopsis and prove it, for the most part.

Let's ALSO keep hitting bush on his issues: We can't let those blaring red lights of his fade into the background.

4. Isn't it a shame
that a resource like DU has to delve into the story BEHIND the story and discovers the Truth?

Shouldn't that be what REPORTERS are supposed to be doing? Isn't that what they are getting paid the big bucks for?

They ALL are lazy and incompetent...no wonder they like and identify with *.
