Jefferson as Democrat By Dave Pierre (Bio \| Archive) May 22, 2006 - 18:54 ET Following the practice of other media outlets, the 3pm PST (6pm EST) top-of-the-hour headlines on ABC News Radio failed to identify Rep. William Jefferson as a Democrat. The Democratic congressman is under investigation for bribery after being caught on videotape accepting $100,000.
