NY D.A. Clears Brooklyn ACORN: 'No Criminality Found'

From Kings County, New York District Attorney Joe Hynes just now::
On Sept. 15, 2009, my office began an investigation into possible criminality on the part of three ACORN employees. The three had been secretly videotaped by two people posing as a pimp and prostitute, who came to ACORN’S Brooklyn office, seeking advice about how to purchase a house with money generated by their ‘business.’ The ‘couple’ later made the recording public. That investigation is now concluded and no criminality has been found.


Well, what a stunner. Still no retraction from you, New York Times? Will you even bother to report this news this time, after failing to report that former MA Attorney General Scott Harshbarger found the same months ago, as did the Congressional Research Service, even as you continued mis-reporting the ACORN "pimp" hoax ever since?

UPDATED Law enforcement source: "They edited the tape to meet their agenda"...

8. As always. We've seen this show before.
I must say I stand amazed at the sheer power to rewrite reality our Nazi-Bushies have. They have fused the RW Lie Machine to the Corporate M$M (they each have similar interests in keeping we peasants docile while they are turning us into a Neofeudal society) and are now so entrenched that our media is and has been for quite some time as predictable and upside-down as anything from the old Nazi Germany or Soviet Union.

Just the Big Lie is American-style now, but just as upside-down.

The ACORN Propaganda Op was a complete success for the Bushies, as have virtually ALL their propaganda ops since at least 1998.

Scary times are coming. Times of great totalitarian evil.

Keep an eye on the "Oath Keepers". For they will be the ones who won;t think twice about dragging Liberal assess off to "relocation" camps.

11. yep

The next repub to take the white house will make us pine for the 'good ol' days' under Bush, I'm afraid...

13. Thank you, Brad Blog for bird-dogging this story.

And to the ACORN/Brad Blog critics that have insinuated that Brad Blog was not reporting truthfully: You know who you are and you owe Brad Blog and ACORN an apology.

15. unfortunatly, the damage is done. Acorn lost there funding
in a very public vote, and those videos were all over fox news for months. Even though what those asshole wingers did was illegal, it can't be undone. Only time will heal this wound.
fuckers
