‘Only a Debate Moderated by a Fox News Guy Stands Between Wrestling Mogul Linda McMahon and the U.S. Senate’ … tomorrow at Beyond Chron

Irvin Muchnick’s opinion piece, “Only a Debate Moderated by a Fox News Guy Stands Between Wrestling Mogul Linda McMahon and the U.S. Senate,” will be published Tuesday, September 28, at Beyond Chron (http://beyondchron.org), the San Francisco online newspaper.

Connecticut Media Show a Pulse on Linda McMahon Bankruptcy Story

Daniela Altimari, on the Hartford Courant‘s “Capitol Watch” blog, takes a swing at Linda McMahon’s fairy-tale rendition of her 1976 bankruptcy  and attempt to turn her offense into the best defense. See “Bankruptcy as a campaign strategy,” http://blogs.courant.com/capitol_watch/2010/09/bankruptcy-as-a-campaign-strat.html.

Let’s just say that Altimari, like David Collins of the New London Day, has barely begun to scratch the  surface here.

Hey, Congressman Anthony Weiner — Respond to My Email and I’ll Respond to Yours

The gall of Congressman Anthony Weiner.

His name is on an email to me today from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, subject line “Relentless,” asking me for a donation to help DCCC raise $403,112 more before the September 30 deadline of the Federal Election Commission.

But here’s a news flash, Tony: I’m not about to answer your email until you answer mine.
