Brokaw: Romney 'Missteps' Gave Obama 'Air Cover' And 'Camouflage' On Libya
NewsBusters ^ September 28, 2012
On Friday's NBC Today, special correspondent Tom Brokaw demonstrated the blatant media effort to ignore Obama administration failures surrounding the consulate attack in Libya: "Romney turned out to give the President air cover. There are serious questions about what happened in Libya and the absence of security and what is our Middle East policy, but Romney's missteps really have given the President more camouflage than he would have expected."
Brokaw lamely attempting to blame Mitt Romney for the failure of the media to ask tough national security questions of Obama echoed a recent revealing statement by CBS News political director John Dickerson, who declared that it was solely Romney's responsibility to hold the President to account over Libya because the media would not.

Media-"we wanted to ask obama tough questions and look into this Libya thing but, darn it, Romney wouldn't let us!"

I dont know Brokaw is getting his crack supply but whoever is supplying him needs to tell him to cut it down

When the truth comes out, it’s referred to as a “Romney misstep” by the commie piggies in the state controlled “media”.

There were no missteps by Romney.
You gave him cover, you damn communist.
We all saw what he and you did.

BS, the media gave Obama cover. I believe in Karma and it is time for it to hit Obama in the rear end.

Is “Romney’s Fault” already overtaking Bush?!?!?
That means that the media is practicing for Romney’s First Term?

Why don’t the MSM just admit they are part of King Obama’s Ministry of Propaganda

Could be Im not sure but Brokaw is a delusional liberal scum bag. Obama gets blamed for NOTHING. He could take a shotgun, go on a shooting rampage and the media would blame Romney for it. Obama has been given a free pass to do whatever he pleases

Unbelievable. Just how stupid is Brokaw?
It is Romney’s fault because the media was able to blame Romney for telling the truth and not hold Obama to account for this lies?
What kind of a defense is that? I agree he is on drugs, going senile or is so corrupt with power he feels it really does not matter what he says anymore. What a lying, deceitful, evil idiot. I shudder.
