California Reporter to Republican Candidate: ‘We’re Not Interested’

The Other McCain reports:
A reporter for the Torrance (Calif.) Daily Breeze sent an e-mail to a political consultant saying the newspaper is “not interested” in covering Republican candidate Mattie Fein, who is challenging Democratic Rep. Jane Harman in California’s 36th District.

In the e-mail sent Wednesday (see text below), Daily Breeze reporter Nick Green told consultant John S. Thomas of Thomas Partners Strategies, “Don’t call or e-mail us – we’ll call you if we’re interested. And if you haven’t got it yet, we’re not interested.”
No word yet on whether the Daily Breeze is looking to join Jane Harman's husband's emerging media empire. Nick Green would made a fine addition to the Harman controlled Newsweek!
