Washington lobbying firm pulls bio of lobbyist accused in McCain scandal, then readds it
Source: Raw Story



The Washington lobbying firm Alcalde & Fay pulled the biography of partner Vicki Iseman Wednesday evening after a New York Times article accused her of having a romantic relationship with Republican presidential nominee shoe-in Sen. John McCain (R-AZ).

The removal was caught and reported on by the Huffington Post at 947pm ET.

RAW STORY, however, found the bio was readded around 11pm ET Wednesday night.

Shortly after the Huffington report, which began appearing elsewhere, the firm apparently reversed course, and reposted Iseman's profile. This time, however, a new file was created with the ID of 84.

3. Not a new word, just a new typo
Add a magical line to "readded" and you get re-added.
