Journos endorsing McCain tossed off Obama plane
By: Agencies

Washington: 

He's the man: Barack Obama

The Obama campaign has decided to heave out three newspapers from its plane for the final days of its blitz across battleground states - and all three endorsed John McCain for president!

The NY Post, Washington Times and Dallas Morning News have all been told to move out by Sunday to make room for network bigwigs - and possibly for the inclusion of reporters from two black magazines, ESSENCE and JET.

Despite pleas from top editors of the three newspapers that have covered the campaign for months at extraordinary cost, the Obama campaign says their reporters - and possibly others - will have to vacate their coveted seats so more power players can document the final days of Senator Barack Obama's historic campaign to become the first black American president.

Sources said that the reporters are being ousted to bring on documentary film-makers to record the final days of his presidential campaign.
