GOP-led report obliterates Fox News’ version of Benghazi

jaybookman.blog.ajc.com

Here are the last few paragraphs of the above story, highlighting that Fox and the RW base are basically composed of liars and lunatics:

Of course, no media outlet has been more fixated on Benghazi than Fox News. Here’s the story and headline on the Fox home page, in such tiny text it had to be highlighted so you can find it:



The content of the Fox report is what’s really astonishing. To read the Fox story, the House Intelligence Committee confirmed rather than refuted the over-the-top allegations that Fox has been peddling for so long. Someone reading that Fox story and only that Fox story would not have the slightest idea that in fact the House intelligence panel had thoroughly rejected almost every aspect of the Fox version of Benghazi.

Its opening paragraph gives you a flavor:

“A leading Republican wants to expand the House investigation into the 2012 Benghazi terrorist attack by adding a Senate probe, as a new House Intelligence Committee report Friday concluded that the initial CIA assessment found no demonstrations prior to the assault and a primary purpose of the CIA operation in eastern Libya was to track the movement of weapons to Syria.”

It’s one of the more awesome examples of diversion and denial that I have ever seen. The Fox philosophy seems to be that they have lied so often to their viewers on this story that hey, what’s one more, right? The alternate universe must not be compromised by reality no matter what.
