This is our entire problem in this country.
The NYT piece is well written and illustrated with bold photography, video, and maps. There are chapters where the article appears to deal with various "rumors" to do with Benghazi.
THIS IS THE PIECE THAT CEMENTS THE "TRUTH" ABOUT BENGHAZI INTO AMERICAN HISTORY. If we don't fight it right now, it will be the truth.
Phrases like "the Times researched for many months" or "the truth was more complicated than that" solve curiosity in most Americans' minds.
The only way to fight anything in this article is to step up factual refutations with footnotes (which this article does not have) and point by point disprove these allegations. And not on Rush Limbaugh's show or Sean Hannity's. The fight has to be LOUD AND BIG and dwarf the fight over Phil Robertson's freedom of speech.
The rest of this thread should hopefully focus on nuts and bolts directions on how to fight this, or else we deserve President Hillary Clinton.
Care now, or don't care at all.
I agree with you.

Let’s assume, yaelle, that the rewrite of history is to benefit Hillary. What does she need to accomplish more than being able to say, “An in-depth investigative article by the NYTimes says we were right, that Benghazi was inflamed by a video and that al-Qaeda was not personally involved.”
She can say that now.
How should conservatives deal with that?
One way this could happen is if the republican party would refute this article and not stop until they have discredited every lie as you suggest. I believe as you do this a big deal. This is outright deception shoved right in everybody's face and the height of arrogant propagandist BS!
The NYT needs to be taken DOWN for this one!
I hear you.
