Reply #31: Seems that it is already seen as a "prank"

even here on DU there is a thread (admittedly roundly booed and already sinking fast to p.2 and beyond) asserting that to compare this "shenanigans," with Watergate is silly.

I just checked other major news outlets, Salon.com and KCBS.com and neither showed a whiff of this story.

I just cannot believe that with all the pub garnered by the ACORN alleged sting (since refuted but that story not covered much in news outlets either) that this would not set off alarms.

I guess this is just testament to the priorities of the MSM, such as they are.

At least DU is alive with interest in it, and the Rude Pundit promised more as it happened too recently for him to write about it yet.

What with all the noise over the Geithner hearing, SOTU, Haiti, and other essential stories (odd how that policy damning cable from Afghan ambassador likewise sunk like a stone) I'm sure this will become a backpage afterthought every place else except here.

Well, it was reported that some national big names are starting to take notice and once the SOTU is over tonight and the fallout to that fulluy exploited, we may get back to investigating all the facts behind this incident. Lots of big right-wing propagandists names mentioned already, but not widely disseminated.
