The DRUDGE REPORT has learned from exclusive sources that Supreme Court nominee Samuel A. Alito Jr.?s 90 year-old mother Rose has become a prisoner in her own Hamilton, NJ home because of a barrage of media requests.
The quiet neighborhood Mrs. Alito has lived in for over 50 years has been turned upside down all week by a swarm of national reporters who have phoned and shown up at the doorstep of not only her but many of her neighbors.
In the last 24 hours alone, she and her neighbors have been contacted by national reporters from NEWSWEEK, CBS? ?EARLY SHOW,? THE BOSTON GLOBE and THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.
Outside of a trip to a local pizzeria and quick junket to her son?s home an hour and a half away, Rose Alito has been stuck inside all week.
One neighbor, who asked the DRUDGE REPORT to withhold their name so the press wouldn?t call them at home, was stunned at the treatment the 90 year-old grandmother had received. ?Mama Alito is just a sweet lady and we don?t understand why she is being hounded by these reporters. She can?t even go outside and tend to her fall flowers. She?s just a proud mother, what do they want??
When told of the latest Alito episode one Washington insider said, ?Why are they harassing Judge Alito?s 90 year-old mother when he has written over 350 legal opinions? The media should leave Judge Alito?s mother alone. ?
