1. There is some hint of the story slowly emerging on MSM but it's basically buried by Gustav
Also, the MSM tends to be skeptical of police abuse stories unless there's OVERWHELMING evidence. It's probably because they run a greater risk of being held responsible if they get anything wrong with the story. Everyone remembers Rathergate right?

3. Yeah, actually there is one thing that should have been covered at least
The IVAW protest actually got to have its meeting with Obama campaign officials but the McCain campaign refused to see them! Here's the YouTube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnfXIrcMN3M
