[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why suddenly now? 
Forty years later?

What's the most recent allegation?

I know you and others despise the Washington Post. But the reporter was just doing what a good journalist does -  following a story. She heard the rumors and did the painstaking work to track down the allegations. Why now?  Because Moore is poised to burst onto the national stage -  be one of 100 senators.  A better question is why the Alabama press didn't track down the story years ago.  It was clearly out there. Alabama journalists are corroborating the story now.

Sunlight is the best disinfectant.  Our founders understood that freedom of the press is paramount in our democracy.  One of the most anti-democratic things that we are seeing today is villifying the press. Sure, fact check them.  Call them on bias.  But when you let your agenda cloud facts (like in this case, this was a well sourced story - the reporter's bias, if any, doesn't change that fact), you are undermining our democracy.   [/quote]
