In what appears to be a shocking journalistic fail, a
Boston Globe reporter acquired Barack H. Obama Sr.'s immigration records in 2009 under a FOIA request.
(Boston Globe)- The INS documents, released to this reporter through a Freedom Of Information Act request in 2009 in the course of research on a biography of the elder Obama to be released in July, reveal Harvard’s crucial role in the tumultuous course of the president’s father’s life. The documents were made public Wednesday by the weekly newspaper, The Arizona Independent.
The records were very uncomplimentary to Obama Sr. He is described as a serial womanizer, polygamist and a "slippery" character. According to the documents,
Harvard tried to have Obama Sr. deported. The records were released this week by another newspaper,
Arizona Independent, after they received them under a separate FOIA request. The
Boston Globe reporter is writing a book and it is unclear if this information would have been included. The mainstream media has a strong aversion to reporting negative information about President Obama and Democrats.
The National Enquirer broke the John Edwards' "Love Child" story. The mainstream media
suppressed it even after the
National Enquirer broke the story. On a more positive note, the
New York Times is reportedly selling the
Boston Globe for a
$900 million loss.
WASHINGTON (AFP) — The Boston Globe reported Friday that a businessman is preparing to offer more than $200 million to buy the struggling newspaper from its owner, The New York Times Co...
The Times Co. bought the Boston Globe for $1.1 billion in 1993 but the value of the newspaper has plummeted since then, along with the fortunes of the US newspaper industry.
Let's hope the new owners promote journalistic integrity.
