Fox News is covering the latest revelations of the Benghazi murders:
Let’s check in with the other Mainstream Media news outlets to see how the self-proclaimed journalistic “professionals” are covering the biggest story in the world right now. A careful analysis of their home pages at 3:45pm ET reveals the following:
NBC News : Nothing.
ABC News : There was a link to Jake Tapper’s blog, which discussed the story, but nothing else more prominent.
CBS News : A small story in the lower left corner talks about the commando force available but mentions no details of the multiple calls for help, all of which were denied.
CNN : There was a tiny text-only link to the “Benghazi e-mails” but nothing else.
NY Times : Nothing.
Washington Post : Nothing.
CBC News : Nothing.
BBC News : Nothing.
What would be most amusing, if this wasn’t so serious, is that almost all of the news outlets prominently display “Breaking News” or “Latest News” as taglines. Pathetic.
Update #1: Must see video: Listen carefully to what the caller has to say: The Right Scoop.

Sorry, Pete, my apologies. I read your post much too fast.
Here’s a somewhat off-topic pro tip for all you talk radio fans stuck in canukistan. You can record your favourite shows online at http://dar.fm for free and listen to them anytime you want and skip commercials. I record Rush, Hanity, Beck, Levin and Batchelor and then just listen to whatever is good that day.
Please, dear Kate or Robert or Lance, or whoever, don’t let this one die in the fershlugginer filter..
From the late, and lamented, Hunter S. Thompson, as written in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas:
“Journalism is not a profession or a trade. It is a cheap catchall for fuckoffs and misfits, a false doorway to the backside of life, a filthy, piss-ridden little hole nailed off by the building inspector but just deep enough for a wino to curl up from the sidewalk and masturbate like a chimp in a zoo-cage.”

This story will make the MSM. Eventually.
In fact no matter if someone doesn’t be aware of after that its up to other users that they will assist, so here it takes place.
