Benedetto just said it's a non issue outside the beltway.
Maybe Tammy will mention it on "In Depth?"
Way back in 2004 Benetto wrote the following, so he knows why it's so important for the follow-up Armitage story to be discussed and reported.

2 excerpted quotes:
"""Wilson's charges, embraced by Democrats and publicized far and wide by a news media all too willing to believe the worst about Bush, were given great credence because Wilson was the man chosen by the CIA to investigate the suspected Iraqi effort.
By his concluding that the Iraqi uranium-buying attempt was pure fiction, it gave critics of the war in Iraq one more chance to call Bush a liar and say he took the United States into battle under false pretenses."""
""
But now that the Wilson case has been debunked, it is interesting to note that the news media, so eager to build him up, and tear Bush down, now seem reluctant to tell the rest of the story, or at least the next chapter. Wilson, who had been a fixture on television, now seems to have disappeared. Democrats are silent.
Why were the media so willing to believe Wilson when he was an obvious Democratic partisan? He not only worked for the National Security Council in the Clinton White House, he also is a foreign policy adviser to the Democratic presidential campaign of John Kerry. Why, indeed?"""
Ha! What was the whole past three years of Dem and DBM outrage, then? From this whole story we get:
1. Bush lied (16 words in the 2003 SOTU speech) per Joe Wilson
2. The White House Outed a CIA Top Secret agent to stifle critics and punish poor Joe Wilson
3. We simply must have a special prosecutor to look into this abuse by the Administration
4. Carl Rove was periodically moments away from indictment for two years
5. Scooter Libby goes to jail for perjury
Now, cover the above points for thousands and thousands of hours on various television "News" shows, especially our Sunday shows. Throw in one of the Sunday shows hosts (Russert) who was part of the scam....(difference between Fitzgerald's phone interview with Russert and Libby's sworn testimony, for example) and then they state it's only an "inside the Beltway" issue?
Couldn't ONE of these shows bring in Joe Wilson this weekend?
LOL! You know they could but will not, as doing so will make them (including Darlin' Joe) out to be the liars and moonbats they are.
How's that for fair, non-biased coverage of the issues of our day? They'll tell ya to your face that they're not biased. Honest!
