The Washington Post has not bothered to cover the story of voter intimidation by the new black panther party or any of the other important stories that have stemmed from this major news story.

Well, they did finally "cover", and I use that word very generously, the story July 15, 2010 with the headline: 2008 voter-intimidation case against New Black Panthers riles the right

On Sunday, one of WaPo's ombudsman, wrote an opinion piece admitting that the paper should have covered the story. I found it interesting though that even in Andrew Alexander's opinion piece he said, "...For months, readers have contacted the ombudsman wondering why The Post hasn't been covering the case..."

In case you don't know, according to WaPo, "As The Washington Post ombudsman, he serves as its internal critic and represents readers who have concerns or complaints on a wide range of topics including accuracy, fairness, ethics and the newsgathering process. In his role, he also promotes public understanding of the newspaper, its Web site and journalism more generally. He operates under a contract with The Washington Post that guarantees him independence."

Seems to me, WaPo's ombudman needs an ombudman to watch him. Oh, he does. The WaPo readership. As circulation keeps dropping for WaPo and other media outlets, and they keep kowtowing to liberal interests, is it any wonder they support goverment funding of media?


Alexander went on to say, "...National Editor Kevin Merida, who termed the controversy 'significant,' said he wished The Post had written about it sooner. The delay was a result of limited staffing and a heavy volume of other news on the Justice Department beat, he said."

The NAACP calls The Tea Party racist but says the Black Panthers are not.

The NAACP has no interest in helping blacks its only interest is in helping the Democrat party.

Just an update on this story...

"The Justice Department is ignoring civil rights cases that involve white victims and wrongly abandoned a voter intimidation case against the New Black Panther Party last year, a top department official testified Friday. He called the department's conduct a "travesty of justice."

Christopher Coates, former voting chief for the department's Civil Rights Division, spoke under oath Friday morning before the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, in a long-awaited appearance that had been stonewalled by the Justice Department for nearly a year. "
