LA Times can’t quite blog Tom Hanks’ endorsement
May 4, 2008
Do I detect a tone of curmudgeonly resentment in the LA Times’ Andrew Malcolm’s recent Top of the Ticket “blog” post?
In an obvious attempt to be ignored for a while, Tom Hanks with no fanfare, news release or hoopla, late tonight put up a video on his MySpace page endorsing Illinois Sen. Barack Obama for president.
“Blogger” Malcolm refuses to actually link to the video, and also fails to point out the self-declared history buff Hanks’ error– neither Obama nor anyone else will take the oath of office “in November.”
