[quote=SD Realtor]Agreed that breaking stories can become broken stories. I don’t think it would behoove the security agencies for “more reporting” as opposed to less reporting of a sleeper cell. As we have witnessed over the past decade in pretty much every terrorist plot that has been detected prior to that event, those stories died within a day or two as well.
As you and many others may deride Glenn Beck, I find it interesting that nobody has actually refuted what he has said. I guess they don’t feel it is important.
While to you it is not important that someone with a student visa is living in Boston and is at the crime scene while on a student visa to go to school in Ohio, to me it is important. The 9/11 attacks had several terrorists that were also here on student visa’s. So the non story to you is important to me and I would like to know more details about it. Since nobody else is reporting about it, where else can I find out about it but these outlets.
It is just our different perspectives. We have different opinions on the media. My guess is that you believe that if the mainstream media doesn’t report about it, then it is not an issue and that outlets like Fox and people like Beck are right wing crazy’s. You may very well be correct. Mine is that the mainstream media is steeped in political correctness and is almost fearful of the current administration. I don’t bite on everything that Fox or Beck report on but don’t ignore them or laugh them off like everyone else does. Perhaps the truth is in between.[/quote]
Adam, most news sources don’t refute Glenn Beck in the same way they don’t refute Stella Tremblay when she asserts the government is run by Queen Elizabeth.
They don’t refute it because its FUCKING RETARDED.
Fox News is not crazy.
However it is partisan.
In the same way that MSNBC is partisan.
Thats part of the reason Beck isn’t on Fox News anymore.
They have a perspective (which isn’t mine) but they don’t run about alleging the Muslim Brotherhood is front for Code Pink.
I disagree with Fox News but actually disdain Glenn Beck (and his dittoheads).
This reminds me of that movie Barcelona where everybody in Spain is fighting the AFL-CIA conspiracy. Whenever the Americans try to explain how that makes no sense, they are accused of being a part of it.
