| A healthy scoop of nothing |
| The NYT's supposed big scoop on Wednesday leaves much to be desired in the "news making" department. The boffo headline: State Department Warned Sleepy Clinton Admnistration About Bin Laden in 1996. The details: Analysts at Foggy Bottom figured out that the terror mastermind -- er, "financier" at the time -- was dangerous, and that he could become more so if he moved from Sudan to Afghanistan, but they didn't know exactly how dangerous or in what context ... Brilliant. This should give Fox News, NewsMax and the Freepers something to do all day tomorrow rather than talking about Iraq, but beyond that, not impressive. |
