The LA Slime writes up stories and sits on them until days before an election to achieve maximal effect. They're good at it too. You think it was pure chance that they pulled last minute stories of smut on Arnold and Herschensohn days before an election? Doubtful.
God bless the free market in action, then.

But why would they sit on it? Are they really going to sell more papers just before the election? And they risk that someone else will run it first.
