John Solomon's Witch Hunt Of Harry Reid Busted

Erica Werner from the AP reports this:

Incoming Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid did not break Senate rules in accepting free ringside seats at boxing matches from the Nevada Athletic Commission, the Ethics Committee has concluded.

The committee disclosed the determination in a Dec. 7 letter to Las Vegas resident Robert Rose, who had filed a complaint on the matter.

The Associated Press reported earlier this year that Reid, D-Nev., attended three Las Vegas fights between 2003 and 2005 without paying, using credentials provided by the Nevada Athletic Commission, a state agency. Reid was supporting legislation during this period to create a federal agency to oversee boxing, something the commission opposed.

Interesting that this comes to light just as the Washington Post hires Solomon away from the AP. Remember – it was Solomon who had conducted this continual witch hunt against Harry Reid. Perhaps the Washington Post should keep an eye on their latest addition to the reporting family.

I believe the AP should have forced Solomon to cover the fact that Reid was found innocent as his final act of employment. It could have been a final mia culpa for him, but that might hurt his dignity.
