Lost Remote » Who at IB posted Russert’s death on Wikipedia?:

"The first place to report the news of the death of Tim Russert wasn’t NBC - or
the New York Times… it was likely Wikipedia. Someone edited Russert’s entry at
3:01pm ET - a full 23 minutes before Drudge, NYT and the NY Post picked up the
story. NBC broke into programming on the network and on MSNBC at 3:39pm ET."

because of their past extremist statements on Islam and Jews"

McCain has much to lose in this election, and many ways to lose it. If he is to win he has to be masterful as a politician, but appear to be doing it naturally. That might be true in any case, but the pressure is turned up on McCain.

Who is doing this...
