ST. PAUL, Minn.-- NewsBusters Ken Shepherd and Jacob Lybbert ran into Laura Ingraham at the Republican Convention on September 2. The radio host was in a rush but spoke briefly to NewsBusters.

Ingraham said the bottom line for the media's biased coverage against Palin was that she is pro-life. When we thanked her for taking a few seconds to talk to us, Ingraham praised NewsBusters, saying, "you guys do great work."

I just saw on CNN that McCain cancelled an interview with Larry King because of a badgering of Sarah Palin's National Gaurd Leadership by Campbell Brown.

Speaking of badgering

Andrea Mitchell's post-speech interview with Joe Lieberman was classic. Lieberman wanted to talk about McCain, but Mitchell keep hammering about the uncertainties of Palin. You could tell that at the end of the interview, she was simply dumbstruck about the support for Palin. Earlier, she interviewed two members of the Pennsylvania delegation (Andrea was a long time reporter for former NBC affiliate KYW in Philadelphia), and no matter what the answer was, she steered it to Palin, hoping to pull out something derogtaory.

Here's an interesting tidbit from the convention.

Yes I know what Kid Rock said.

However, former CA Assemblyman Robert Pacheco is writing a local web blog from the convention. I just read this:

" Leaving the hotel a while later we visited a group of Latino leaders
connected to "Daddy Yankee", a latino entertainer that recently
endorsed Senator McCain and the dream entertainer for millions of young
people. It was a wonderful opportunity to share many views as we spoke
to Hispanic leaders from all parts of the country. A speciall part of
the meeting was talking to the producer and manager of Daddy Yankee.
We learned how Daddy Yankee met Senator McCain and was moved by the
senator's story. Daddy Yankee took a calculated risk in
endorsing Senator McCcain publically because of Hollywood's continued
obvious left leaning and vocal dislike for Republicans. However, we
don't. "

I can tell you DY is actually a pretty huge deal. My 14 yr old knows him (Of course I'm married to a Hispanic and live 18 miles east of downtown LA : ) so DY hasn't been hard to miss. I already have read comments on blogs about how some are "disappointed" in DY supporting McCain.

But who has seen news coverage of the above event? Ok maybe MTV gave it 30 secs I don't know.

Oh, and I just told my daughter DY supports McCain, just like one of her other favorites, Johnny Ramone would probably have done.

What is a "Conservative Punk" you ask? This guy nails it!

For those of us stuck in PBS wasteland you have got to stop being so professional and take some fan pix when you have one of the supremo babe minds talking with you.

Lawrence Sinclair had some hillarious times today with Chris Matthews scowling at him as he posted on his blog site.
