Though Media Matters and other pro-Obama outlets such as the
Democratic Underground are reacting in full mock-and-ridicule mode, WND’s report today
– featuring video of a retired Illinois postman who claims former
terrorist Bill Ayers’ parents told him they were financially supporting
“foreign student” Barack Obama through Harvard – is one of the hottest,
most-read news stories in the world.
At one point today, the Web information company Alexa ranked the story as the fifth hottest page on the Internet.
The establishment media, meanwhile, have completely ignored the story, and when news-agenda-setter Matt Drudge posted it on his Drudge Report, liberal watchdogs Media Matters and the Democratic Underground quickly unleashed scorn on Drudge.

The Democratic Underground urged Republican presidential front-runner Mitt Romney to condemn Drudge for posting the Obama-Ayers story.
Media Matters dismissed the story as unserious.
“As always, this is all farcical and amusing, but allegations like these are still treated seriously by people like Matt Drudge, who is currently featuring the Corsi story on his site,” Media Matters said.
A blog called Newscorpse.com, an apparent play on Rupert Murdoch’s News Corps, the parent of the Fox News Channel, ran this headline: “New Obama Conspiracy Theory Tests The Limits Of Idiocy.”
WND Editor and CEO Joseph Farah wrote in his daily column that the “most well-read news story anywhere” was “deliberately spiked” by establishment media, despite advanced notice.
Major talk-radio, he noted, also was tipped off on the story ahead of time and didn’t touch it.
Nevertheless, bolstered by placement on the Drudge Report, “millions got the first-person, eyewitness evidence that Barack Obama was helped through Harvard by the family of domestic terrorist Bill Ayers back in the late 1980s.”
“The good news,” Farah writes, “is that a story like this can still be read and seen by millions despite the control.”
