Fox News Rewrites Benghazi! Narrative After New Exposeby Karoli at Crooks and Liars

"SNIP..........................
Fox News is in hard-core BENGHAZI! mode again, but the interesting part of this round of stupid is that a new book shatters their 2-year old narrative.
In Fox News land, Hillary Clinton, or possibly the White House, depending on what day it is, issued a stand down order. What really happened, according to three of the co-authors of 13 Hours: The Inside Account of What Really Happened in Benghazi, is that the CIA station chief requested a pause while he tried to enlist Libyan local security teams to assist in the embassy defense.
In order to successfully counterspin the book, Fox is hosting a one-hour special tonight to build their own propaganda before the truth emerges about how much they've lied to their audience.
...................
Fox News is desperately trying to move the goalposts before people wake up and figure out what they're doing. They'll use the catchphrase "stand down" to ring a familiar bell while ignoring the fact that the order came from the CIA officer in charge of the Benghazi mission security.
