Did anybody see ANYTHING on the lamestream news yesterday about this memo? I watched Petah Jennings and saw NOTHING. However, Petah must have been VERY AWARE of the memo since he led off his broadcast with a story (delivered in urgent tones) about some obscure Lebanese businessman who claims that a bigwig Iraqi was willing to let an American disarmament team into Iraq shortly before the war broke out. This turned out to be a complete NON-STORY (nothing much in the news about this today) but it served as a convenient smokescreen for Petah to use to divert attention away from the memo.
Let's see. Petah reports on a non-story about Iraq and completely ignores a major story concerning the memo. Way to go, Petah!
PJ, last night (Thursday night), Tom Brokaw had a piece on with a few Republican quotes and far more Democrat quotes, he hinted that it was just the usual politics, didn't adequately explain what the controversy was, and obscured the real story.
Basicly, Tom did a token piece so that now he can say he has "covered it" when in reality he didn't cover it at all. Worse, what coverage he did do was clearly from the Democrat side.
I'm waiting to see the Media Research Center's take on it.
