….To Get The Lotuslandian ProMedia’s Attention

…(Phil) Hochstein said his (Contruction Company Lobby) group didn’t consult with the Liberals on the ad, and he defends the allegation that Dix “forged” the memo (to protect his former boss, then Premier Glen Clark).

“Someone backdates a memo in a criminal investigation — what else are you supposed to call it?” snaps Hochstein, who said his organization is spending “less than $100,000” on the ad blitz — with possibly more ads to come…

Mr. Dix is going to have to deal with the memo thing.
But I assume that Michael Smyth et al., who covered the story then and who could cover the story now, anytime they want to, have details imprinted on their amygdalas.
So….
Why, exactly, do they have to wait for Phil Hochstein’s high-five figure dog-whistle to snap to attention?
I mean, is that what it takes – negative attack ads to get the proMedia to actually pay attention? If that’s the case, we really are doomed.
And, on a related front, why are Snooki and/ The Birdman too gutless to blow it in the first place?
The whistle, I mean?
Sheesh.
