Did John McCain talk to the head of Paxson Communications before writing a "highly unusal" letter to the FCC in 1999 to ask the body to speed up deliberations on a pending Paxson deal in Pittsburgh? And did Paxson's chief lobbyist, Vicki Iseman, whose firm had given lots of money to McCain's presidential campaign and flown him on their private jets and ferried them on their yachts ... attend such a meeting?
Yes, and yes, according to a pretty good source: Lowell "Bud" Paxson.
The McCain camp's blanket denials notwithstanding.
