Yahoo changes Swift Boat headline to defend O'Neill!

[Democat]

Original headline:

Swift Boat Writer Lied on Cambodia Claim
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x670543

New headline:

Swift Boat Author Addresses Contradiction
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=694&e=2&u=/ap/kerry_critic_swift_boats

Yahoo fucking changed the headline to make it look better for O'Neill. If you subpoena the phone records for Yahoo or AP, you can bet your life that they got a call from someone close to Bush - not from the Swift Boat people, but from someone related to Bush's campaign. Of course, some of the people in the Swift group are also in the Bush campaign, so I'm sure that is the excuse they would use.

Too bad we don't have the money or lawyers to try to find out who pressured Yahoo to change the headline.

3. We'd have to send a whole lotta e-mail to counterbalance Karl Rove

News editors are going to be very sensitive to the wishes of Boy King and his handlers.
