Oops, a simple little mistake... unless your part of the Liberal Media Bias in which case you'd lose your FCC license and get a new set of electodes for the genitallia.

Does the DNC have recourse?

Is there ANY evidence that the Democrats ignored any emails, or that they even KNEW of them?

I've seen dubious claims that some media may have not come forward with them, but that is specious, at best.

There hasn't been a liberal media bias for over 6 years. The DNC doesn't need a recourse, just a truthful and positive perspective, something for which FOX news has little capacity.

I agree gregg, unfortunately for many the "truth" is whatever they hear repeated most often and most recent. I'd love to see a poll asking which party people believe Foley belongs to.

The "media bias" is my attempt at sarcasm. In Bush v. Kerry 2004 the top 100 newspapers by circ. endorsed 50/50. If there is a bias some outlets may lean a little left but not far enough to balance Fox and ABC.

And Jim, the only claims I've heard about media sitting on this story refer to newspapers in Foley's district. Not sure what to make of them as one of the papers is usually very agressive with investigative reporting.

This is not an area of the law I know much about, admittedly but--

1) I don't see anything actionable here under common law concepts such as defamation. The harm is not particularized sufficiently to any person (including groups within that)to give rise to a cause of action.

2) It would seem to fall within the area of FCC rules (again, I know NOTHING there) but you know the agency won't act because no nipples were exposed.

Yes, but four pricks were! And this includes whoever decided to type that graphic and the editor/producer that allowed it to air. Goebbels must be smiling!!
