So, a winger sends threats and white powder to liberals, the LA Times buries the story in local news, and nobody else picks up on it. That darn liberal media:

A federal grand jury indicted a Woodland Hills man Friday on charges of sending threatening letters with white powder to half a dozen politicians and celebrities, including incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and television personalities Jon Stewart and Keith Olbermann.

The 14-count indictment accuses Chad Conrad Castagana, 39, of sending the letters from Sept. 7 through Nov. 9 to those three as well as Democratic Sen. Charles Schumer of New York, comedian and late-night talk show host David Letterman and Viacom Inc. Chairman Sumner Redstone.

The indictment alleges that six letters were sent to Stewart, four to Olbermann and one each to Letterman, Pelosi, Schumer and Redstone.

During the investigation by the FBI, California Highway Patrol and postal inspectors, authorities determined that a money order in the case was made out to "Friends of Katherine Harris", according to the affidavit, ... was traced to Castagana's address in Woodland Hills.

"It appears the individuals were targeted based on what he described as their liberal politics," Assistant U.S. Atty. Donald Gaffney said Friday after the indictment was returned.

"He described himself as a compulsive voter who voted conservatively or Republican and he did not like the politics of these individuals."

Maybe somebody could explain to me why this case isn't treated, and covered as a case of domestic terrorism?

I mean, if Rush Limbaugh had been targetted, as opposed to Jon Stewart, we'd be seeing wall-to-wall, 24/7 coverage of this thing. The producers would even bump missing white women stories for this!

And it would be just the same if [insert name of any Republican officeholder here] had been targetted, instead of Nancy Pelosi.

Could it be that our famously free press believes, deep down, that it's really OK to attack liberals?
