To: Time is now

Just maybe we are seeing the beginning of a little house cleaning in the MSM. Fact is, that the NEW MEDIA is going to put out the REAL NEWS and the MSM is finally realizing they are not invincible.

They also don't want to go out of business, because too many people switch viewing/listening to the NEW MEDIA...it is amazing what arrogance can do to your senses (afterall, just look at Kerry).....

This is going to be interesting --- Bush should shove this scenario right up where it belongs.....

You've nailed it, EagleUSA. The MSM knows it better start to clean up its act. They now know - finally realize - they are no longer the "only game in town."

The MSM has competition and, as with everything else, competition ultimately cleanses the field of all but the winners - and to win, you've got to be on your game.

Think that is too optimistic. Whatever they are up to; it must serve their 'agenda'; whatever it is.

Or, maybe, this is a just 'bone' of sorts; offered to some big dogs, who may be clamoring for a real house cleaning at ABC.

Whatever, we know, the MSM are 'what they are'. Don't see that changing in any idealogical; agenda driven/serving way. . .

Maybe ABC has seen the documents at CNS.

See the following:

Unfortunately, I wouldn't count on it.

This is an ABC News report from 1999. ABC News itself has not gone back to this story recently, and I haven't heard anything that they plan to. Jim Quinn was the one who found it and posted it to show that the MSM was proclaiming OBL/Saddam ties a while ago.

Even if they respond to it, I doubt they'll say more than "old news based on ad intel."
