JAYSON BLAIR CLAIMS THAT HOWELL RAINES ACTUALLY WROTE HIS STORIES

HIS SCREENPLAY WILL PROCLAIM HIS INNOCENCE, A BLACK MAN BETRAYED.
New York May 20/
In a sensational development, disgraced New York Times writer and ACCUSED plagiarist Jayson Blair has accused Howell Raines, the editor of the New York Times, as the author of the plagiarized and fabricated articles attributed to Jayson Blair.

"That scumbag Raines signed my name to his fake stories," said Blair yesterday. "The guy (Raines) is a compulsive writer and has to write and write all the time. It's like a drug for him. But nobody will publish his stuff so he stuck it to me. And I'll leave it to you as to why he picked on me, a black man."

Blair will claim in his screenplay that diversity at the New York Times was a ploy that Raines and Sulzberger (the white publisher) created so that if the stories written by Raines using poor Mr. Blair's byline became known they could turn on a black person and not be accused of racism.

"I was shocked when I read that fake Sniper story," Blair says. "But what could I do? A black man in a white man's world says nothing if he wants to stay employed."

Blair says there is much worse going on at the Times, things he will reveal in his movie. Sex crazed white women yearning to have sex with young black men, wild drug use in freight elevators and rest rooms, the way he resisted New York Times all-star Maureen Dowd til he finally capitulated: "We all have our breaking points, as John McCain has put it so well," breathes Jason.

Worse than the sex, the drugs, and the fake articles by Raines is the bribery, pedophilia, and outright fraud. "So they pick on me. I ask anyone. Are black men genetically disposed to lie, cheat and steal? Were any of the Enron criminals black? The Global Crossing thieves? The Communist spies in the 40's? Hell no. The problem at the Times has a color but that color is not black. This movie will show a rampant testosterone level among women never revealed in an R rated movie before. They shoot the stuff in the rest rooms. They are crazy. They will rip your clothes off in the hall if you don't go with them. Girls as young as sixteen working as interns are shooting the stuff. That's all I'll say til the movie comes out."

We can hardly wait.
