Alas, Poor Blagojevich, we knew him too well....No thanks to the media

Hat Tip: http://therealbarackobama.wordpress.com/2009/01/25/blago-subpoenas-wheres-the-tanning-bed-media-now/

And where will Blagojevich and his sweet tempered bride be during the impeachment proceeding beginning tomorrow?

Why they are going to London to see the Queen or actually to New York, New York to appear on ABC’s “Good Morning, America” with Diane Sawyer and “The View” with Barbara Walters, as well as Monday evening’s “Larry King Live” on CNN. Lynn Sweet adds they will also appear on NBC’s Today Show (taped in Chicago) and FOX’s On the Record with Greta Van Susteren/Fox and Friends.

Doug Ross at Director Blue commented

And, once again, the mainstream media is AWOL, unwilling to report on this very newsworthy story.

Those subpoenaed:

Patricia Blagojevich, first lady
River Realty, her former employer
Friends of Blagojevich, the governor’s campaign committee
Citizens for Blagojevich, his former committee
Robert Blagojevich, the governor’s brother and campaign chairman

Christopher Kelly, former adviser and fundraiser for governor

Milan Petrovic, lobbyist and campaign fundraiser
John Wyma, former Blagojevich adviser, now a lobbyist
Paul Rosenfeld, lobbyist
J.B. Pritzker, wealthy Chicagoan whom Blagojevich might have considered to replace Obama in U.S. Senate
Gery Chico, former Chicago school board president and one-time U.S. Senate candidate
Doug Scofield, former Blagojevich adviser, now a consultant

Valerie Jarrett, Obama adviser
David Axelrod, Obama adviser
Service Employees International Union
Tom Balanoff, SEIU Illinois president

Doug Ross adds: “Blago’s ‘Senate Candidate 3′, Jan Schakowsky, was not served with a subpoena, but will have some questions of her own to answer in the days to come.”

And let’s not forget Rahm Emanuel, reportedly on 21 different taped conversations by the feds — dealing with his boss’ vacant Senate seat!
