Remember how the media covered up Obama's relationship - with Farrakhan and Jeremiah Wright

Can a Reuter's shareholder sue the media? Reuters is in the news business. They make money (the grubby capitalists that they are) by putting news out over the wire. That’s what they do. So when they hit on a juicy story, such as the Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate belonging to a hacker group in his youth, they’re supposed to do all the necessary things to report the story: gather the news, confirm it, cover all the angles, write it up, vet it, vet it a 2nd and 3rd time, edit it, and PUT IT ON THE WIRE.

Because you see, that’s how they make money. If they don’t publish they have no income. And a story like this is going to make money for them. So by having this reporter (who of course has remained unnamed and undisciplined) spike what is a juicy story, they lost money.

So if I’m a shareholder, I’m unhappy. Or at least, I should be.
