MSNBC, following the lead of most other news outlets - reported that Al Gore was involved with memos indicating the Democratic party traded a veto of tort reform for campaign contributions from trial lawyers.
This story held the lead for about all of one hour before MSNBC buried it in trivial BS - including at least one story trying to make Gore look good.
However, MSNBC does allow readers to vote on the importance of a story. Perhaps if we stop by and indicate that we would like to see some follow-up on this story, the lure of ad dollars will be strong enough to convince the media to get off their ass and cover the story.
