Interestingly enough, in the Washington Post today, I even read about the hypocrisy of the media over it's failure to report on the Lott statement, despite it being on CSPAN (as was the Wellstone memorial):

"At first the 'liberal media,' which went into a frenzy over political statements at Paul Wellstone's funeral, largely ignored this story. To take the most spectacular demonstration of priorities, last week CNN's 'Inside Politics' found time to cover Matt Drudge's unconfirmed (and untrue) allegations about the price of John Kerry's haircuts. 'Just two days after moving closer to a presidential race, John Kerry already is in denial mode,' intoned the host. But when the program interviewed Mr. Lott the day after the Thurmond event, his apparent nostalgia for segregation never came up."
