It's on the internet, but no one in news (papers/TV) is touching the story that Edwards had an affair and the woman is pregnant. It is in the Enquirer today, but don't discount that rag. They deal in scandal, but they have been right more times than wrong.
I am not anti-Edwards, just trying to figure it out. The silence is deafening, odd for the media, which thrives on scandal!

How would this ever be considered the "biggest story?" Affairs, children born out of wedlock, back door deals, drugs, special interests, etc... are common every day occurrences in the world of politics.

If you ever listen to Rush Limbaugh he says that the media is mostly biased in favor of Democrats. Therefore it would logically follow that any scandals with Democrats would be swept under the rug. That is one plausible answer to your question. I am open for other suggestions.

Well...you pretty much answer your own question...the report is from the Enquirer...why would you even consider it news coming from there?

If it's true he's a scumbag. I had heard he cheated before but don't know if that's true, either.
