Herman Cain Tag

Yesterday I saw a lengthy thread at Memeorandum about a "HermanCainPAC" website which had a large cover story calling Karen Kraushaar an "ugly bitch." Here's the screenshot: The website looked real, with a donate page and so on. But I didn't post about it because it looked...

How ironic that Karen Kraushaar, whose identity became known only yesterday, called Herman Cain a serial denier. It turns out that Kraushaar is a serial complainer, demanding money at a second employer for supposed inappropriate language, via AP: A woman who settled a sexual harassment complaint against...

Summary of press conference.  Complete denial.  Doesn't even remember Bialek.  As to other named accuser, Karen Kraushaar, repeats that only accusation he remembers is about gesturing the height of his wife.  Took plenty of questions from reporters from major networks. ------------ Starts with lawyer Lin Wood, who...

Herman Cain is fighting back against accusations made yesterday by Sharon Bialek.  Cain will hold a press conference at 5 p.m. Eastern today to address the charges: "There is not an ounce of truth to all these allegations" and the graphic account from Sharon Bialek is...

The champagne corks must have been popping at Politico sometime just after 2 p.m. today, as Sharon Bialek presented her charges against Herman Cain. After a week of obsessive reporting (at least 91 stories about Cain's alleged sexual harassment of employees at the National Restaurant Association),...

The details are in my prior post. Is he guilty just because someone says he is? Is he said/she said really just "she said." I think this will be very damaging. And there probably is nothing Cain can do about it regardless of the truth. That's the...

Gloria Allred has a news conference with a "4th Accuser" scheduled for 1:30 p.m. Here's Cain's staff response (the link in the tweet is to Cain's Iowa fund):  ...

I predicted this would happen. It looks like there now is a fourth Cain accuser coming forward, to be accompanied at a press conference later today by Gloria Allred. A fourth woman will claim that Herman Cain sexually harassed her while at the National Restaurant Association in...

As noted in my post last night, Politico wrote 91 news stories in a one week period regarding "sexual harassment" charges against Herman Cain, without a single story stating what conduct Cain actually engaged in or was alleged to have engaged in. Howard Kurtz (via Althouse via...

Just the stats: Days as of 8 p.m. Eastern today since Politico broke the story - 7 Politico news stories about or mentioning "Herman Cain": 138 Politico news stories about or mentioning "sexual harassment": 91 Politico news stories about or mentioning "sexual harassment" not involving Herman Cain: 0 Politico news stories...

Herman Cain and Newt Gingrich are having a Lincoln-Douglas style debate tonight in Texas, starting at 8 p.m. Eastern. I'll be doing a live blog for it, and I'll try to embed the C-Span live coverage, if that is possible (I don't think it's possible, so...

That Memeorandum algorithm is smart, really smart.  It not only finds the blog posts and stories which drive the debate, it also pulls a snippet of text from the post so readers get a sense of what's really important in the story. And in the case...
