Political Dirty Tricks By The L.A. Times? No WAY?!!

Jill Stewart of the L.A. Daily News has written a fascinating report on the hypocracy of the Los Angeles Times regarding coverage of Arnold Schwarzenegger and the allegations of sexual misconduct. Apparently, Gray Davis has a confirmed history of abusing the people in his office and more specifically, two women that worked for him, and the Times refused to give the story any real estate on their paper. They are all too happy to publish unconfirmed, tabloid-like reports about Arnold without a shread of proof. Click here to read the op-ed.

Between you and me, I'm very skeptical about these so-called revelations regarding Schwarzenegger. It's just odd how this information was made public days before the election. It sounds like political dirty tricks. The reason, I feel, it wasn't released earlier is because it would have given Arnold too much time to recover. Releasing it this late forces him to address negative issues (and creating strong associations with those negative issues) and less time talking about his platform. It's crap. None of these women ever said anything until the final days of his campaign? Odd coincidence, considering he's always been in the public eye.
