Like Jasons, 5.) The mainstream media had to play catchup. Lamar White Jr. is the same blogger who helped, along with American Zombie blogger Jason Brad Berry, further the story of Congressman Bill Cassidy’s alleged double billing scheme at LSU. While we know many reporters in Louisiana’s legacy media were aware of the double billing story before pursuing it in the wake of Berry’s initial reporting, it’s not clear if the Scalise story was similarly shopped around and dismissed. White’s story was definitely the first I had heard of it. Either way, it’s a clear sign that the political blogosphere has finally caught up in Louisiana and can no longer be ignored. Yeah, where does the Cassidy investigation stand anyways??
