I didn't want to say anything about this media event, but there is a lot of speculation and it is getting off into uncharted terrain. The media is going crazy over this. They know nothing and are extrapolating as far as their agendas allow. Too much 'what if.'

"They know nothing and are extrapolating as far as their agendas allow."
And obviously we understand how far they can go. The L/MSM need a truly strong awakening call. In the case of the misinformation on the NSA request to major telephone companies to provide a record may be one of the things that will backfire on them. Unless the majority of Americans have actually reached a level where we could classify them as morons, surely more people are attempting via. polls etc., to express their disatification with the L/MSM. As one poll we saw some months back indicated.
In this case discussed here. Once the Marines are freed of any wrong doing, the L/MSM will not respond other then the typical 20 second quickies on world news channels.
Perhaps a few rags will write up some half @ss articles that still don't quite get it, but people will wonder, why the deal really was if they do not hear about court martials coming to past.
Not much we can do about it. Newspaper budsmen etc., probably have little effect. The L/MSM are institutionalize as you well know, to work toward electing far left, liberal politicians into office to meet their agendas.
Sadly. The L/MSM and associated rags have reached the point where they see they can get away with just about anything. Americans have such a short memory span. They are to worried about the stupid battery in their cell phones not being charged, so they can walk out into traffic oblivious to the world with the phone stuck on their ear.
The brave new world has come upon us. Knowledge has such a terrible price to bear.
But we cannot give up. To many good kids out there that can see what the deal is once given a chance and adequate time to explore the possibilities of not letting things go totally under.
What was that verse in Jules Verne's novel ....
There is hope within God's time...
