Al Gore scandal could be Enquirer's hat trick

National Post: "The Enquirer is rarely sued successfully — its reporters are that good — but its stories are often so explosive (not to mention icky and discomforting), they aren’t followed up until late in the game by the more timid mainstream media. It was the Enquirer that lifted the rock off John Edwards, the former North Carolina senator with White House aspirations who blew it all by fathering a child with a campaign aide. Mainstream news outlets ignored the story for months."
