Gosh! CNN just reported on CBS 9/11 story

Edited on Thu Dec-18-03 10:33 AM by Atman

Granted, they only gave it 1-15 seconds, but they put up a full-screen pull-quote with a "9/11 Failure" headline.

It is a start. Drip, drip, drip.

8. You're right, pduck....

the cable news always start off slow with these type of stories, but it will grow the legs it needs to get into the mainstream of American media. With the courage of women like Kristen Breitweister this will all come out eventually.

3. The headline shouldn't be "9/11 Failure" - it should be "9/11 Success"

because that's the true scandal of the Bush administration.

14. My E-Mail

On the e-mail form for errors and omissions in reporting...

========

9/11. The CBS story last night. The hearings. Get Jacko off the goddam airwaves and report the news! This is absolutely reprehensible, and your complicity in helping the administration cover up this story is simply treasonous. I don't use that word lightly. The blowback on this has the potential to be disastrous for CNN; remember, credibility is all a news organization has...when you ignore what the rest know to be the facts, your credibility on EVERYTHING suffers.

If they hear from enough viewers, maybe they'll make more of an effort.

13. more news sources covering this now....

http://www.phxnews.com/fullstory.php?article=8102

this is all I can find for now, but so far, we're up to 6 new sources reporting it. Plus CBS and the NJ one and CNN so atleast 9 all together. It's not going away.

11. Do not let it die, email them with a question about it

here is the link for a question

http://www.cnn.com/feedback/forms/form2.html?2

I told them that the 911 commission story was intriguing but their news story was so short that I needed more to understand it. Could they please expand on it.

15. I forsee another "dirty bomber" type story.

Every time any word about 911 starts to leak out, a BIG SCOOP story trumps it. I have no doubt that Hussein was held in the hole only to be "produced" with dramatic timing.
So, what will the story be? Ossamma? Condi's love child? Utah seceeds?

Place your bets.

16. The "credible evidence" of impending attacks

In Europe somewhere. What country was it this time? They've been hyping this for a day or two, too. It's a fair bet on that one.

17. If the failure of 9/11 could truly be linked to Clinton

other than some peon in some company saying, "Hey, if we do manage to happen across Osama Bin Laden, and manage to capture him, do you want us to turn him over to one of your favored friendly nations?",

Then this whole mess would have been investigated from 9/12/2001, and all the investigations would have been open and transparent.

Nope. No conservative media bias here.

18. Staten Island Advance picks up the story

http://www.silive.com/news/advance/index.ssf?/base/news/1071762454223260.xml

I can only imagine how many people are trying to get hold of Thomas Kean today for an indepth interview. I wonder if/when the White House spin room will comment.
