The Washington Times<\/a> reports this morning that a New York Times reporter working on a typical hit piece in Arizona resorted to stalking the McCain minor children in her attempts to dredge up slime;<\/p>\n

The newspaper had been working on a profile of Cindy McCain and sending reporters to Arizona and around the country to scoop up a story.<\/p>\n

But the assignment heated up after NYT reporter Jodi Kantor sent a Facebook message to a 16-year-old schoolmate of the McCain family’s daughter, Bridget.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Washington Times quotes part of the email message;<\/p>\n

“I saw on facebook that you went to Xavier, and if you don’t mind, I’d love to ask you some advice about a story. I’m a reporter at the New York Times, writing a profile of Cindy McCain, and we are trying to get a sense of what she is like as a mother. So I’m reaching out to fellow parents at her kids’ schools. My understanding is that some of her older kids went to Brophy\/Xavier, but I’m trying to figure out what school her 16 year old daughter Bridget attends– and a few people said it was PCDS. Do you know if that’s right? Again, we’re not really reporting on the kids, just seeking some fellow parents who can talk about what Mrs. McCain is like.<\/p>\n

Also, if you know anyone else who I should talk to — basically anyone who has encountered Mrs. McCain and might be able to share impressions — that would be great.Thanks so much for any help you can give me.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Obama thug-ocracy just disgusts the living crap out of me. What they’ve done to Joe the Plumber, Sarah Palin and everyone else who’s deviated from the Obama narrative is just disgusting. But the worst part will come when John McCain wins the election. Mark my words.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
