Clearly this guy doesn't monitor Idaho media
As always, I'll call this right wing author myself. I'm sure he won't be interested in talking about real issues, of course.
The author of the piece is not exactly all that aware of media. Saying there was no coverage of Larry Craig and misidentifying Ed Schultz -- Ed has nothing to do with Air America and he's got a MUCH bigger audience -- signals this guy didn't bother to pick up an Idaho newspaper or listen to Idaho radio. (He also wasn't there as I played tapes of a conversation with a man who had sex with Craig.) Apparenly, the guy also missed coverage of Craig on Bill Maher, MSNBC, or CNN:

Rocky Mountain News: Opinion Columnists: "Today, threats of outing are used as blackmail, and might amount to criminal extortion, depending on the jurisdiction. Last year, Washington, D.C., homosexual blogger Mike Rogers warned that a vote for the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito would result in the outing of a senator. Several weeks ago, Rogers followed through on his blackmail, although the claim was so bereft of evidence that it received little attention from most media, other than Air America's Ed Schultz.I'll report back on my call on Monday.
