did you miss the part where it was originally reported by the NY Daily News and NOT the enquirer?

please, tell me why you bothered to waste that few seconds and make that post.

NE is a pretty trashy publication, but the story they reported is pretty trashy as well, so it's right up their alley. i'd expect them to scoop everyone else. it's not like they were reporting on israeli/palestinian relations...

how do you catch a jewel thief? hire another jewel thief. how do you catch a dirtbag senator? hire some dirtbag NE reporters.

You don't like the topics of their stories so you continue to hold onto your ignorant opinion of them. Fact is for the last THIRTY YEARS the enquirer has been NOTHING like what you've been making them out to be. They didn't publish batboy, they didn't write about cheney/robot, they do have lots of gossip-like articles but they are backed by investigated reporting. So stick with your programing/believability thing, but as long as you're using what was true THIRTY YEARS AGO to form your opinion, your opinion is going to be crap.
I respectfully disagree that the Enquirer is a legitmate news source. It was and still is a celebrity gossip magazine. It's not a credible or serious news source. You will not be able to convince me otherwise.

Because you continually defend them as real journalists. Real journalists report on real stories. Look at that webpage...what stories on there are even newsworthy?

Her family says the baby looks like Edwards. They also said they think Edwards should take a paternity test, but the mother doesn't want the public attention.

Roxanne goes on to say, "I've seen the pictures of the baby she looks like John Edwards. She's got his eyes and jaw line and lips, but she does have Rielle's nose."
Edwards Fathered Hunter's Baby, Say Hunter's Sister And Friend

Edwards may now be investigated for campaign finance issues regarding money that was sent to the mother of the child with no daddy on the birth certificate whose family members say looks a lot like Edwards.

Yea, I didn't believe it at first either, but the OP was right and the people who attacked him personally definitely made a fool of themselves.

Did you email Al Franken to apologize? Didn't think so.


Most people didn't bash the OP personally, just the source...as most of us wanted more sources to actually back up the story. Just like what most people on here call for in most threads.

So pathetic. No defense so you're talking about a thread made when Al Franken lost the election and only won because he was better at cheating the system?

By the way, you're starting to sound like Thorgrim with all this apology BS talk.

The vast majority of the criticism in this thread (I wont say all since I don't have time to go back and read it) was about using a fucking tabloid as a real source of news. They aren't credible, and I'd say the same shit if they posted something else about it or someone else today. When an outlet with some credibility reports on it, then it becomes news. Until then it's just a gossip rag trying to sell trash to housewives checking out at the grocery store.

I heard a statement from Kerry saying that "Edwards is not the man I knew." Or something similar. I guess the media ran to him to ask what he thought about his running mate. It's all kind of post-humourous. Can you imagine if he won the election and was still the Vice President? I imagine the federal government would have swooped in to try to stop it, but wow.. a video tape of the VPOTUS having an affair with the mother of his illegitamate child while his wife is dying of cancer... Talk about a scandal.
