I agree, based upon what we think we MIGHT know so far (we don't really know the facts, and should not behave like John Kerry).... IF ABC did not have the tape for more than a few days and IF they have turned it over to Homeland Security then we should not be jumping all over them for not throwing it straight on the air ala Al Jazeera. One question, which we have been worrying about here, is whether ABC was withholding the story to try to benefit Kerry - but from what we are reading SO FAR I don't see that ABC has acted irresponsibly - it would have been irresponsible for them to throw the tape on the air....
I don't for one minute think ABC should have shown it on the air without knowing its authenticity. But if they held it from HS or CIA etc., that's a different story. We're not talking about a bunch of bogus TANG memos here, this is about national security.

Excuse me? Am I missing something here?
We have been discussing, I think, NOT that they didn't air It - but that they held it back for a few days from Homeland Security! It's the HOLDING BACK THE INFO FROM HOMELAND SEC/CIA ETC...
n'est pas?
