I'm troubled by the way the Daily Kos front page editors handled the RFK jr. election fraud story

I'm not surprised that the mainstream media didn't cover the RFK jr. story. That's what we've come to expect of them.

What I did find surprising was how the story was treated by the front page of Daily Kos. Now, I'm not necessarily convinced of the fraud argument myself, but, when you have a very prominent member of the Democratic party publishing something so controversial in a mainstream publication--and when you have nothing but diary after diary on this on Daily Kos for days on end--you'd think you'd see some mention of it on the front page.

But for many days, there was nothing. It felt just as weird and contrived as it felt when, for days and days, there was no coverage in the media of Stephen Colbert's roasting of Bush, no coverage of the Downing Street memo, etc.

After a few days, we finally had a front page diary from Georgia10 on this--just like, after a few days, we had some grudging coverage in the MSM of the Colbert roast. But it was hard not to be irked by the way the front page editors of this site seemed to be downplaying a story that's highly significant even if you don't buy into the fraud allegations. It's hard not to feel that they were acting in as dishonest and manipulative manner as the mainstream media does when it is engaged in suppressing a story.
