FAUX and Friends Ignores Starr Forgery Flap
When I read that Ken Starr to represent Death Row Inmate, I was confident that this would be ignored by FAUX NEWS (or WSJ, Washington Times, Radio Factor, Limbaugh, Shuanitty.)
Starr, author of a tale too lurid to read out loud on public airwaves, was set to represent death row inmate, Michael Morales, who is to be executed on February 21st. This on the heels of his successful representation of another death row inmate..
Would FAUX and Friends "savage" Starr, darling of the right, for trying to save a vicious murderer?
I thought not and I was right. Not a peep has been uttered or written.
Why? Some might claim that it's not a national story. After all it's a California issue. In California, it's important because after executing less than one person a year (with over 650 inmates on California death row.) But nationally?
The same could be said for Tookie Williams though. The introduction national names like Jessie Jackson brought the wolves out.
Now the Morales case has a national name, Ken Starr.
Despite the allegations that Morales' attorneys, as detailed yesterday by myself, submitted multiple forged and fabricated declarations, there has been no coverage by FAUX & Friends.
The print media has covered it well. Since last Friday almost every major paper has run the story written by the Associated Press. The LA Times, SF Chronicle, and Lodi Sentinel News are doing their own coverage.
Hannity and O'Reilly are on the air four hours a day. You think they could spend 10 minutes on the story?
Hannity is in San Francisco and mentions nothing. He seems busy being a couple's therapist for the past hour.
O'Reilly yesterday covered the asinine San Francisco impeachment resolution but nothing on Starr or Morales.
Look at The Drudge Report today. It's primarily a site that links other stories, so how hard would it be to link an Associated Press Story
Instead of linking the Starr/Morales Forgery story, Drudge decided today that these stories are more important:
Drudge has never linked the Morales story in his site.
So far, the only conservative columnist I know who has written on this is Debra Saunders. But she's pro-death penalty and won't allow partisan politics to interfere with that position.
You have to respect that. It would be nice if FAUX & Friends wasn't so transparent in their lack of integrity.
Former Whitewater independent counsel Starr released a statement through the American Civil Liberties Union that he would help draft the clemency petition.
Starr, who is currently the dean at Pepperdine University law school, will urge Schwarzenegger, who has never granted clemency, to commute Morales' term to life without parole. because Morales has taken responsibility for the murder, expressed remorse, and tried to atone for his crime while on death row.
