John Edwards Watch: The Cover-Up?

Mickey Kaus says The National Enquirer has moved onto the “coverup” of the John Edwards, paid off mistress and love child story rather than publish the photographs of their reporters run-in with Edwards last week.

In context, the photos would be powerful evidence. Enquirer editor David Perel apparently doesn’t want to win over the MSM by releasing them. He’d rather have the Edwards story all to himself.

An interview of the Los Angeles Times blogmeister Tony Pierce offers the MSM standard excuses of why they buried the story and continue to do so today. Or is it ignoring?

Of course, if Edwards had been a GOP Senator or Presidential candidate, all of the Los Angeles Times bloggers would have been directed to cover the story.

This story will remain moribund until The National Enquirer decides to release at least one of the photographs of the fleeing and/or cowering Edwards or breaks more of which they have promised.
