What is more important?

Consider the Question: What is more important?

a) the fact that the attack on the American embassy in Benghazi was led by an al Qaeda operative who helped finance the original 9-11 attacks and then was held at Gitmo for six years; or

b) the fact that the inspector general of the Department of Justice found criminal wrongdoing within the department in connection with operation Fast and Furious; or

c) the third day of reactions to the tape of Mitt Romney telling a fund raiser last May that a big group of Americans expect to get benefits from the government and will probably vote for Obama?

If you chose item "c", then you have the same news judgment as the ABC and NBC evening news. CBS chose "b" for its evening news. Fox went with "a".

What gets interesting, though, is not the item that led the evening newscasts. No, even more interesting is which items got omitted from those newscasts. ABC and NBC did not even mention Fast and Furious or the al Qaeda connection to the Benghazi attack. CBS did not mention the al Qaeda connection to Benghazi. Fox covered all three.

It is a sad thing for America when the supposedly fair evening newscasts do not even cover important news because it might make Obama look bad. Maybe NBC could change its name to Pravda.
