Charlotte Observer pulls story detrimental to Democrat incumbent. How does this work? Did the White House call the newspaper and threaten them? “Hey, Bozo, you want an IRS audit?” Do the publishers of the newspaper start quaking in their boots and peeing all over themselves? And afterward, if you’ve been telling your momma you’re a journalist, how do you look her in the eye from now on?

So suppose, just suppose, the editor of this "fine" paper has a hobby of taking nudie selfies with his lawn mower. And suppose the white house, with information supplied by the NSA has copies of the downloads from "my hot lawn mower.com that the editor has been viewing. Now just suppose that a cloak and dagger type shows up at the editors office with copies of the visits to the a fore mentioned website and politely asks the editor to retract any and all stories detrimental to President Obloa? Quicker that you can say voter fraud the story is "disappeared" and the government man thanks the editor and advises the editor the government knows they will have the papers full cooperation from today "forward".
