The Publisher of the Las Vegas Review-Journal Stands Up to Sen. Reid's Bullying of Opposition

If he thinks he can push the state's largest newspaper around by exacting some kind of economic punishment in retaliation for not seeing eye to eye with him on matters of politics, I can only imagine how he pressures businesses and individuals who don't have the wherewithal of the Review-Journal.” – Sherman Frederick (publisher of the Las Vegas Review-Journal)

It is never a good idea to alienate a media source from your state especially when election time is coming up.  There is nothing wrong with disagreement between a news outlet and a politician, but when the politician gets threatening, rude, and downright nasty it WILL come back to bite them.  I think that Sen. Reid is in panic mode.
