Are we more concerned about Rosie v Trump and Britney’s underwear (or lack there of) then we are about being blown to Kingdom come?

There may be hope for the MSM after all. But I'm not holding my breath over it. Subsunk Looks like Brian Ross did a decent job on this report. There may be hope for the MSM after all.

Did Brian Ross, ABC's crack investigative reporter even mention one time that these were <em>Muslim</em> terrorists? Or that the guy who was shot dead on the street was a Muslim. Sure, Islamo-facists like to kill Christians and Jews; in the absence of an infidel-rich environment, they'll satisfy their bloodlust with the life of coreligionists (do I really need to give examples?) This story got almost zero press at the time. Afterall, it was pre-election and doesn't play well with the MSM generalizations of the war on terror. a) Bush and Cheney are trying to frighten US citizens into thinking its much worse than it is b) The US doesn't have any friends in the world (Syrians defended the US embassy) c) The US can't protect its citizens or interests d) Muslims are being singled out for no reason whatsoever and we infidels are antagonizing them Kudos to Ross for questioning the honor of the Syrian government.

Since these lunatics were attacking the <em>United States</em> embassy, they shouldn't have been referred to as "terrorists." According to the MSM, they should be called "insurgents", or "freedom fighters", or...something. Good report, but Brian Ross got his descriptive words mixed up.

I'm afraid the guys that sent these terrorists are going to be reviewing that for a play-by-play on how to make the next attack work. Here's a fun tinfoil-hat thought for the day: Our government leaked the footage in order to suggest to Al-Qaeda that Bashar Assad set them up.
