A leaker
The article is confusing, but in this case I find it hard to blame the media. There is no reason that anyone should hand over sensitive information to the media that would compromise our intelligence gathering.
If this was given or leaked to the Drive-by Media, it is the fault of the one that gave them the info knowing they are partisan, anti-American appeasing traitors.
The official that disclosed this to the media should be executed.......ABC, NBC, CBS should be ignored.
Had ABC and the other anti-American msm outlets been around during WWII, Hitler would have won.
ABC should be banned from the White House Press Corps for compromising our security in this disgraceful way.
This article is pretty much 100% incorrect in it’s timeline and assessment of the situation.
What do you base that statement on?
It is ironic!
Eventually, these America-hating leakers and the media are going to get a lot of people killed. More likely than not, it’ll be in some big-city bastion of liberalism where people just like them live.
It sounds as if an independent, for-pay business provided the US Government with intelligence. That is fascinating in itself. As soon as it got to the Fed it was compromised.
As we’ve long suspected, that strongly suggests there is a network or aggregation of individuals in our intelligence community who work against our government.
This also highlights why the “journalist protection” act is a mistake. Anyone wishing to disclose intel info could do so with impunity simply by passing it to a journalist who would then reveal it.

The first indication we’re going to get of the inevitable mushroom cloud over New York —
Will be all of the “Morning Shows” going black simultaneously....

Mom Finds Osama Video Before Release

WASHINGTON (Sept. 20) - Once her son is off to school, Laura Mansfield settles in at her dining room table with her laptop and begins trolling Arabic-language message boards and chat rooms popular with jihadists.
This woman was giving interviews, she was also the first person to report the video to US intelligence authorities. She then went and did itnerviews that blew her cover and implicitly mentioned her M.O. to gain access. now Rita Kaitz’s company and other for profit groups also did interviews giving away info.
Google “Laura Mansfield” “Bin Laden” to find more info.
I’m confused, how’d ABC get it?
Both the leaker and the media share the blame equally.
When placed in this sort of situation, the media should get independent confirmation that the information they have received is suitable for public release (that is, unclassified). If they don't do this (and I know they don't), then by releasing it they share in the crime committed by the leaker.
Funny, isn't it, how the media sees this situation so much differently than when the release of Valerie Plame's "covert" status was the issue.
Nice work once again from the useful idiots. And once again, they ARE the story, not reporting it.
This will likely be the most talked-about news item on FreeRebpulic.com today. The most talked-about item in all the news? meh.
Yes.
This is not the first case of the US MSM sabotaging our security.
Whar do you mean...."maybe"???
Wartime press censorship has it’s purpose.
I'd hang'em in the rotunda of the Capitol... and l'd seat the Democrats right up front so that it would be SEARED in their memory.
” I loath the military” Hillary Clinton
Isn’t ~that~ lovely?
