The Left Lies Badly
This is just too much. Once again the left proves it will stoop to any level to try and gain sympathy as well as ratings for thier looseing Air America radio network.

Air America radio host Randi Rhodes is temporarily off the air, but claims she was brutally attacked near her Manhattan apartment are bogus, her lawyer and a police source said today.
Fellow host Jon Elliott claimed on the liberal radio network that Rhodes had been mugged while walking her dog, Simon, on Sunday night. Elliot, who said Rhodes lost several teeth in the attack, waxed about a possible conspiracy.
"Is this an attempt by the right-wing, hate machine to silence one of our own?" he asked on the air, according to Talking Radio, a blog. "Are we threatening them? Are they afraid that we’re winning? Are they trying to silence intimidate us?"
A police source said Rhodes never filed a report and never claimed to be the victim of a mugging. Cops from Manhattan's 17th Precinct called her attorney, who told them Rhodes was not a victim of a crime, the source said.
Rhodes' lawyer told the Daily News she was injured in a fall while walking her dog. He said she's not sure what happened, and only knows that she fell down and is in a lot of pain. The lawyer said Rhodes expects to be back on the air Thursday. He stressed there is no indication she was targeted or that she was the victim of a "hate crime."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So there was no mugging and no crime yet Jon Elliott still went on the air and claimed so. This is not just slander to anyone with an opposeing view but irresponsible at best by this talk show hack. Talk about propaganda and scandel. I hope that Rhodes at least has enough common sense to come forth when she returns and denounces this poor publicity stunt. I doubt she will however as her track record is less then creditable.
