We’ve already noted that Brent Bozell’s second ranting Media Research Center press release on the sexual harassment allegations against Herman Cain lacked something his first one had: the disclosure that Cain is a “personal friend” of Bozell’s as well as the former national chairman for the MRC’s Business & Media Institute.
That sudden lack of disclosure, after starting so well, has spread to other venues where Bozell has popped up. In an Oct. 31 interview with Newsmax, Bozell repeated his assertion from his first press release that “The one thing the left cannot bear is an uppity conservative black man leaving the liberal plantation.” But there too, Bozell failed to mention his relationship with Cain.
Meanwhile, other items on Cain at MRC websites have continued to not repeat Bozell’s disclaimer, even though it appears to be a significant factor behind the MRC’s pushback.
