CBS Uses al Qaeda Propaganda Film
The New Media Journal ^ | January 31, 2007 | Warner Todd Huston

So, here is a question: Why is CBS using propaganda film originally posted on an al Qaeda website and claiming it is merely "CBS obtained" with no mention of the actual source for Lara Logan's report on The "Battle of Haifa Street"?

The anti-Iraq website called Iraqslogger posted a story about how CBS reporter Lara Logan is crying that CBS seems to have spiked her "Haifa Street" story. Logan has sent out a mass email to all her friends and colleagues in the world of journalism in hopes that they will pressure CBS to show her report that has not yet made it to TV. It has, though, appeared on the internet.

In her email, Logan claims that this story is "largely being ignored" and she asks for her pals to email CBS to get them to air it. But she urged supporters not to mention her "request" to pressure the network to air the piece if they did so. I guess she feels like begging is unseemly...even though she is doing it anyway.

Why? Because CBS is a shill for Al-Qaida. Now we have very stark evidence of this undeniable relationship.

I certainly can't answer that question as I thought only brain-dead Ophrah-watching couch potatoes were still watching the alphabet channels.

A FoX News Channel lady commentator stated last night on 'The O'REILLY Factor' that the reason KATIE COURIC's ratings remain low is because of the way CBS Network News continues to...

...misreport the News.

She is correct.
