This is typical of our biased media. Fox News was the only news organization to keep up on this story. The other organizations were too busy trying cover Obummer's butt.

All media must be evaluated for their reporting bias and it's encumbent on us to understand and try to evaluate the "truth." The exception to this would be the person who sees something he totally agrees with and wants to use this source as some sort of an authoritative absolute. Depends on your objectives. If you search enough you can usually find someone to prove your point, no matter how inane.

Obsession with Fux News is an Obsession. DavidO next they will tell us that 2+2+5 is not true. Really?

I have asked him to change his name and out look to BCheery and be happy. There is a hypnotic primal feeling to fear and paranoia and this is what these Doomdayist feed on. Sad for them and sad that 50% of the country follows them. My grandfather who did a bit of alcohol was poor as a church mouse; he spoke of Rockefeller as tho an old friend. Identification with the rich maked him sound rich. Such is the polite of many in our nation.

The questions asked are valid and a shame that not one of those questions can be answered. What was the cost of Benghazi? Four American Lives. Loss of respect around the world not only of nations but also the people. The terrorists knowledge that they can do what they want, when they want and not worry of any retaliation.

My concerns with the media is that they are more willing to protect the president's 6 than to go after the facts. Further,, they have already anointed that H. Clinton will be the next president and are willing to protect her as well. Just where were these two people on the night of 9/11/2012 while the attacks were happening? Who was providing the leadership? Who gave the directives of not protecting our people and assets? The main stream media does not want to cover any of this. Nor any other controversial subject that may show them in a bad light.

Bengazi is a RWW code word for "BS".

According to the math I learned in school, this is equal to 9.

Just like the media did not try to create a scandal when we suffered 13 embassy and consular attacks under George Bush. The attack in Karachi in 2002 cost 10 American lives as I recall.

Where was the right wing outrage machine then? Nowhere. But when one attack happens under Obama it is a scandal and outrage. The right wing hypocrisy is pretty transparent.

Where was the RWW outrage when the actor killed over 600 Marines in Lebanon?

I believe it was 243 marines on a "peace" mission in Lebanon and Reagan did nothing

The actor sent them over without the permission of the Lebanon government. They stayed in the barracks and out of sight until the truck bomb got them.

Once again, rather than focus on the content of the article, the liberal nut jobs on here drag the discussion into an attack on Fox news. Why not address the content presented, afraid it will reflect poorly on his inferior highness?

BTW a Pew Research poll done in 2012 showed that MSNBC was by far the most biased media outlet on TV, so why not a hew and cry about that bias? Once again the comments on here prove that liberal stupidity knows no bounds.
