It’s always sunny in Philadelphia, or at least it is for the Obama / Biden campaign. Unlike Orlando Florida’s WFTV, which responded with a bird flipping when “banned” by the Obama campaign for asking Joe Biden some tough questions about ACORN and tax policy, CBS3 responded to the Obama campaign’s threats by grabbing their ankles and begging for forgiveness.
Joey “Plugs” Biden appeared on CBS3’s 4PM newscast via satellite last Thursday, and was stunned to be asked questions about Obama’s socialist tax policies and some alleged shady money moves of his own by CBS3’s Angela Russell and Chris May.
Poor Slow Joe: He was expecting to talk about the Phillies. It must be nice to be a Democrat Vice Presidential candidate. You get to go into interviews with the expectation of a little sports chat, not that you’ll be browbeaten like a Republican would.
Philly.com’s Marnie Hall reports that the Obama campaign immediately threatened to ban the station from future coverage of the candidates, and CBS3 dutifully threw the interview down the memory hole. The newscast containing the interview was not available on their web site as it would normally be.
