Michael Shaw: Reading The Pictures: The McCain Buffalo Chip (Un-)Cover-Up
Note: FPT: "Only the wildly hypocritical McCain could have made the scene at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally at the Buffalo Chip campground in Sturgis, S.D. and escaped any blowback from the wild debauchery and female exploitation that characterized the event. And, as an act of collusion, the media totally blinked, particularly the visual media. " ~~~~~I only heard about a 30-second blurb about this on Big Media - and look at what they're doing to Edwards now. McCain actually recommended his wife for a topless contest and Big Media said nothing. I wonder if anyone really cares what the Big Media does to run elections, ruin people, and censor what they think they should hear. Good photos here.
