The meltdown of Democratic U.S. Representative David Wu continues. His tiger suit picture made “Photo of the Day” in The Atlantic [2], the Associated Press reported yesterday [3] that Rep. Wu accepted prescription drugs from a campaign donor last October – drugs that have been identified as oxycodone (an opioid like heroin) by other news sources [4], and an article [5] in today’s Willamette Week also brings back up the 1976 attempted rape allegations made against Wu while he was a Stanford undergraduate.
The Oregonian reported YESTERDAY [6] that Rep. Wu’s campaign was fined LAST OCTOBER for violating Oregon law by not having workers’ compensation insurance over much of the past three years.
Voters across Congressional District 1 are still frustrated by the complete failure of the media to report any of this prior to the election. Instead, papers like The Oregonian ran puff pieces [7] for David Wu while refusing to accept editorials from his opponent.
It is good to see the media on the job now.
