Senator John McCain's "maverick" reputation is built - in large part - on his repudiation of money's influence on politics. Now, a New York Times investigation is raising questions about McCain's ties to a Washington lobbyist. We look at the media's relationship with McCain, and how the timing of today's story by the nation's "paper of record" may impact the race for the presidency.
