McCain camp demands L.A. Times release video
John
McCain's campaign is demanding that the Los Angeles Times release a
video of a party for a prominent Palestinian activist that Barack Obama
attended in 2003.
The Times described the going-away party for former University of Chicago professor, and Obama friend, Rashid Khalidi, in a story in April.
The story reported that Palestinians thought they might have a friend
in Obama because of his friendships in that community, despite the fact
that his positions have never been particularly pro-Palestinian.
"A major news organization is intentionally suppressing information
that could provide a clearer link between Barack Obama and Rashid
Khalidi," said McCain spokesman Michael Goldfarb, citing Obama's
friendship with Khalidi, who is now a professor at Columbia University.
