One thing to note on the issue of media coverage of White House indictments. Not only did the media yawn when it came out that Robert Ray could have indicted Hillary for false statements in Travelgate, the media also yawned when the grand jury forewoman for Ken Starr, Freda Alexander, came out in March 1999 and told Washington CBS affiliate WUSA that she would have voted to indict President Clinton for perjury, if given the chance, and said the coverage of Starr was “grossly unfair.”

It’s a sharp contrast with more than a week of heavy breathing on Fitzgerald’s neck.
