Newsmax - The presidents of ABC News and CBS News have siblings who work in the Obama administration and are involved with Bengazi. Political consultant Richard Grenell told "Fox News Watch" that the ties raise concerns as to why the mainstream media has not more aggressively pursued the story.
"I think the media’s becoming the story, let’s face it," Grenell said. "CBS News President David Rhodes and ABC News President Ben Sherwood, both of them have siblings that not only work at the
White House, that no only work for Obama, but they work at the National Security Council on foreign policy issues directly related to Bengazi."
"Additionally, CNN deputy bureau chief Virginia Mosely is married to Hillary Clinton’s deputy, Tom Nides," Grenell noted. "It is time for the media to start asking questions why they are not covering this. It’s a family matter for some of them."
Isn’t all this kind of like saying, "incest is alright, so long as you keep it in the family."
Still trust the media? Reminds me of an email I got last year. It may or may not be true, but how political spin can change a story is on target.
A professional genealogy researcher in California was doing some personal work on her family tree when she discovered that Senator Harry Reid’s great-great uncle, Remus Reid, was hanged for horse stealing and train robbery in Montana in 1889. She and Harry Reid share this common ancestor.
On the back of a photo the researcher obtained was this inscription: "Remus Reid, horse thief, sent to Montana Territorial Prison in 1885, escaped 1887, robbed the Montana Flyer six times. Caught by Pinkerton detectives, convicted and hanged in 1889."
She emailed Senator Reid for information about their great-great uncle and purportedly got this response.
"Remus Reid was a famous cowboy in the Montana Territory. His business empire grew to include acquisition of valuable equestrian assets and intimate dealings with the Montana railroad. Beginning in 1883, he devoted several years of his life to government service, finally taking leave to resume his dealings with the railroad. In 1887, he was a key player in a vital investigation run by the renowned Pinkerton Detective Agency. In 1889, Remus passed away during an important civic function held in his honor when the platform upon which he was standing collapsed."
What’s worse, not watching, reading or listening to the news and being uninformed or watching, reading or listening to the news and being uninformed?
