Santorum Performs Finishing Move On ‘Patriot-News’

Over the weekend, Rick Santorum took a shot at the group that’s costing him the most number of votes in the state: The Harrisburg Patriot-News:

The Patriot-News of Harrisburg, Pa., report that Santorum, who trails Democrat Robert Casey in most polls, referred to his “rocky relations with the press” as he moved from room to room to attend regional caucuses earlier at a GOP state committee meeting in a hotel in East Pennsboro.

Later he refused to talk when a Patriot-News reporter, Brett Lieberman, approached with a question about Iran — and again complained about what he called biased coverage.

“I have to raise tens of millions of dollars because of the junk you feed the people of Pennsylvania,” he said, according to the paper. It added that he “then used an expletive to describe the coverage and slammed down a newspaper.”

I’d personally like to thank The Patriot-News for their coverage of Sen. Santorum, fair or otherwise. If Rick Santorum keeps raising money, we can only see more unintentionally hilarious ads.
