CBS News Friday, No mention of Campus Evacs or Embassy problems
Vanity

Posted on 09/14/2012 4:02:04 PM PDT by HChampagne

I watched CBS (Scot Pelley) just to see how they covered the Campus bomb threats and the Embassy problems overseas. There was no mention of either. Plenty of puff pieces. Sad.

If this were Bush it would headline the news for weeks.

70% of military deaths have happened in Afganistand under Obama and not a peep about that.

Economics all the time. Under Bush it was body counts all the time.

They don't care how many die, no matter how much it costs.

Ubama's agenda is NOT to be questioned or halted in anyway.

It is amazing. After seeing your post, checked my local newspaper website and it has nothing on the page about these events. Lots of fluff and Apple sales news.

ABC national news just kept harping on the anti-Muslim movie lie. Not a word on the pre-planning of a major event, the college threats, Obama skipping briefings, disarming our Marines at embassies, or any other stories that could reflect bad on their community organizer. What they did do is segway into the leftwing polls showing Romney rapidly falling behind in ALL key states.

Pravda could not have created a more biased propaganda newscast.

Citizen,

Your notice of the obvious is doubleplus ungood. Furthermore, pointing it out as you have denotes an effort to deny the great workers paradise that our Ford has revealed to us all.

Please report to your nearest MSM outlet for transport to the reeducation facility.

I caught the ABC radio news at 12:00 noon MDT. Three articles, Obama, Biden, and Hillary at Andrews to meet the plane carrying the bodies of the four killed overseas, AIG has repaid the loan given them, and the Apple I5. NOT A SINGLE WORD about any of the mess in the Middle East.

And they say the MSM is not biased.

When the world blows up this next week and gas goes to $10.00 by next Friday, Scott, Diane and Brian will be hummina hummina hummining that Mitt is responsible for his dangerous comments.

I truly believe that the trigger has been pulled and the war is really against us. Be strong.

Was the breathless Daria Albinger happy with her cast?

No mention on it on ABC. Two minutes on a poll favorable to Obama.

Reading the other posts in this thread I see none of the major networks covered the major events of the day.

This is frightening. The average citizen is being deliberately misled and deceived by the group that is intended to safeguard our freedoms by exposing the nonsense that can and does go on amongst our elected officials.

Think about this- there are thousands and thousands of people that are going to vote who have not been educated about current events, policies or actual differences between the candidates.

We have an ignorant electorate.

Beside a significant number of our embassys not being in oru control, a 40-50K student state university shuts and cancels classes and it is not news. Amazing.

Even the libera-leaning Cronkite would not have approved of this type of MSM ‘selective censorship’ of news.

Fox will cover it, and if Fox covers it, CNN has no choice but to cover it as well. It looks like CNN realizes that they’re not in the same boat as ABC, CBS, and NBC. They don’t have regular entertainment shows to keep them afloat if people decide to stop watching their news shows. All they do is news, and if Fox is killing them in the ratings, then they have no choice but to try and compete with Fox. I thought Anderson Cooper’s recent negative comments about Debbie Wasserman Schultz were a sign that they’re trying to be a bit more evenhanded.

So the news about the Al Qaeda flag flying over our Tunisian embassy will get out there via Fox and CNN. I think it’s great that ABC, CBS, and NBC are refusing to mention it. It just reinforces what a joke they are.

The Boston Globe Workers Circle is blaming the film (that no one actually saw). Not one word about Barky’s utterly failed foreign policy.

We’ve had thirty years to counter the Left’s utterly corrupt media. We have not done it. It’s on our heads.

I’m not surprised. The fact that the German embassy was attacked shows that this is not over a “movie” made in the U.S. There was just also another coordinated attack on camp leatherneck afghanistan.

I think the American media has expanded the definition of Taqiyya:

The OMISSION of TRUTH to advance islam.
