Media hot on the trail of 'threats' against Target -- until ...

Since May 24, the liberal cable (CNN and MSNBC) and broadcast (ABC, CBS, and NBC) networks have spent just over 38 minutes on the conservative backlash against Target’s pride-themed children’s apparel. CNN was by far the most interested in the boycott, with a total of 31 minutes of airtime. MSNBC aired a more modest five minutes and 44 seconds, while NBC — the only broadcast network to mention the boycott — spent 112 seconds on it.

But none of those 38 minutes included even a mention of the spate of bomb threats made against Target by a purported LGBT activist. Even when the threats resulted in forced evacuations of several Target stores, the media remained tight-lipped.
