Some how the John Edwards adultery news got out, even though the mainstream Liberal media did everything they could to suppress the news. Now that the mainstream media has finally acknowledged their conspiring to block the news from their airwaves and papers, they feign shock at Edwards confession.

Here is a montage of  NBC, CNN, MSNBC, DNCTV, what if Edwards had been the nominee?

COOPER: Had he become the Democratic nominee that could have jeopardized everything for the Democrats.

GERGEN:  If he had been the nominee of the party now, it would have ruined the Democrat's chances.

CARVILLE:  Had he been the nominee, it would be a terrible mess right now.

BREWER:  What if he had become the nominee?

GREGORY:  He could have been the Democratic nominee right now.

DIONNE:  Where we would be right now if John Edwards had won the Democratic nomination.

MITCHELL: What if he would have been the nominee?

HENRY:  He could have become the Democratic nominee.

HOOVER:  This guy could have been the Democratic nominee.

WALLACE:  He could have been the nominee.

CAFFERTY:  What if he had been the nominee?  The whole Democratic Party goes up in smoke.   [this is a significant admission] 

Can you hear (read) the panic in their voices? 

Some might be saying that the mainstream media, the same organizations that dropped any premise that they were unbiased when they joined the "Elect Obama campaign", were not trying to suppress this story. 

Then read the words of David Carr of the New York Times.  He was on Reliable Sources with Howard Kurtz on CNN Sunday.  Howard Kurtz asked Carr, "David Carr, this was a story that wasn't reported at all by the major media.  Now it's all over cable and every place else.  What does it say about the old media gatekeepers that this story got out, that everybody found out about this, without our participation?"  

CARR:  “I was taught when I was a young reporter that it's news when we say it is.  I think that's still true, it's news when we say it is, it's just who "we" is has changed.  Members of the public, people with modems, people with cell phones are now producers, editors, they can push and push and push on a story until tends up being acknowledged by everyone.”

So what other news are they keeping from us?
