Title: What did she expect the press would do with it?..
Post by: santahog on October 26, 2012, 09:08:51 PM

This is depressing but...
>> Folks, I was told the other day, that the press would be beating the Libya story to death now, and that it was a good idea for Romney to let it pass, in the last debate...
This, from head of the local GOP..
To me, it sounds like the same old "removed" thinking of the GOP.. (That thought Dole was a good candidate, wants to "work across the aisle with Democrats", and respects Ted Kennedy as the "Lion of the Senate", presumably.)
(Looking at that, it sounds just like McCain..)

Do you think she was right?...

My thought is this....
>> If you don't know your enemy well enough to identify them, YOU WILL LOSE.. <<

How Is the Mainstream Media Covering Friday’s Major Libya News? We Checked, and It Might Depress You

With new revelations about the Obama administration’s role in the Benghazi terror attack unfolding moment by moment, one might assume that all media outlets great and small would be focused on this major story — especially given that Ambassador Christopher Stevens, Navy SEALs Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty and an additional civil servant lost their lives despite the fact that there were three requests for assistance during the siege and were, in the end, told to “stand down.”

TheBlaze thought it might be prudent to review mainstream U.S. news outlets to see which stories are making their front pages. For TheBlaze, the debacle in Libya has been front and center. So, too, for FoxNews’ website and Jake Tapper’s blog on ABC (but not ABC’s “front page”). All other front pages of major news outlets have seemed to relegate the travesty in Libya and the administration’s botched handling of the terror attack to nothing but fine print. As you will see, “Frankenstorm” takes center stage.

Below are screenshots of these front page headlines taken Friday afternoon (October 26). In this instance, a screenshot is worth a thousand words:

The images won't post.. You'll have to go to the link.. sorry..

Heard any thing about "Fast and Furious" lately ?
Like the fact that the whistle blower in the case is suing for libel .
Link got purged from my "trash folder" over night, I think it was NewsMax though.
