Politics / Woods Bernie Ellis Unleashes Reign of Terror Against Quivering Tre Hargett
Posted by Jeff Woods on Mon, Jun 29, 2009 at 8:44 AM
Ellis revealed his plans in an email to Nashville's First Amendment Center in which he tried to drum up publicity for his story. He's been emailing media outlets all over the place too. Ellis may be a nice guy but he turns vicious when cornered. He's none too happy that Nashville's MSM has been ignoring what seems pretty clearly like an abuse of power by Hargett. Says Ellis: "[T]oday's Nashville corpulent media, instead of salivating over this story, is instead sitting idly (and silently) in the corner, drooling all over themselves." In his email, which he also sent to Pith, Ellis adds:
The story will heat up dramatically this week as I will likely be filing two criminal complaints against SoS Hargett (for official oppression and criminal abuse of power), and will be holding a press conference to announce those complaints. ... As much attention as Tennessee has received for the racism and other excesses of the Republicans now in power, I am hoping that you might be able to use your considerable contacts to attract national interest in this story among the handful of respected journalists still left in this country whose saliva glands (and appetite for real, probing, country-saving journalism) are still intact.

Not that it is too difficult to get behind this, but for once I agree with The Nashville Rag. Hargett needs to be run out of office.

This is nuts.......why aren't the other media outlets picking this up? Are they scared of Hargett sending the TBI out to them.
Hargett needs to step down!!!
Where is the outrage? This is serious stuff, it kind of has a 1980's Soviet feel to it.........You get a visit from the TBI for blogging???
Hargett needs to step down. This guy Hargett has the making of great politician no balls and poor judgement!
You send the TBI to speak to an old Hippy, what wimp!
So Tre Hargett sends TBI agents out on what is a bogus complaint and there isn't more outrage for the waste of manpower and abuse of power. the so called liberal MSM isn't doing their job either. Mr. Hargett needs to step down or be forced to resign. Of course Bresdesen doesn't have the courage to do anything about it.
