FOX talking about the Osama / Saddam Memo

[Cush]

from the 'Weekly Standard' article

News Anchor: Can we no longer say Saddam wasn't involved in 9/11?

Former CIA Guy: Thats right, we are seeing more evidence....

1. It's the Murdoch echo chamber

avert your eyes and you won't have to think about it.

2. Weekly Standard the PNAC primer. William Kristol and Douglas Fieth (sp)

twin demons of deception. The "top secret memo" originates from Fieth, who is Department of Defense undersecretary.

3. Newsflash for Fox...

Pakistan and Saudi Arabia directly linked to 9/11.

4. A Weekly Standard Aritcle, quoting a Feith memo, on FAUX

Translation - PNAC quoting PNAC on PNAC = FUCKING LIE :grr:

6. Gosh and I here I thought Fox was getting

their news from newsmax - seems to be a great right wing "source"

[IndianaGreen]

5. Better to talk about that than about the 12 guys killed in the Black Hawks

I don't believe the "secret memo." The CIA and the Pentagon have both said there was no connection between Saddam and Al-Qaeda prior to our invasion of Iraq.

What happened to the WMDs, the pretext for the invasion?

7. guess where he works?

Heritage Foundation

surprised?

I missed all but where he said that Saddam may have, through AlQ, been involved in the embassy bombings and the Cole!

was it just a rehash of the Prague story, or was there anything of substance to back this up?

8. FAUX AS BAD AS NEWSDRECK AND THE NY POST

channel BLOCKED on my tv, just remember WHO tried to stage the Rethug senate entrance prior to Brit "Fair and unbalanced" Hume on Wednesday night. Any questions?

NOW BLOCK THE CHANNEL BEFORE THEIR MIND CONTROL TAKES OVER.

9. I know/agree, but........

was flipping, looking for helicopter news.

this just in, BTW, on F**:

next story will concentrate on how bad it's going to be on Dems, now that the Osama/Hussein connection has been established!!!!!

looks like they're going to pound the hell out of this one as hard as they can, until it doesn't get picked up anywhere else, and just dies like it did the last 15 times it was floated out.

do they think that if they toss it against the wall enough times, it'll just stick sometime?

[buycitgo]

10. fox says: top secret memo PROVES Sad/Osama had operational relationship

they teased the upcoming segment with the above.

is this Feith's memo; the one discussed in the other thread?

sure.

can't wait to see how/if it's covered elsewhere.

if it's true, of course, it should be the biggest story in quite some time, right? very good news for the junta.......wiping away most of the fecklessness of the last 6 1/2 months

my guess is, it stays mostly on Fox, then goes away

[tishaLA]

14. And it's getting thicker!

Now it's "proof positive" of the relationship between "two of the world's most hated men."

[Jack Rabbit]

11. Rupert Murdoch and Fox News

Unless this shows up somewhere credible, I won't believe it.

A little reading:

Seth Ackerman, The Most Biased Name in News, FAIR (August 2001)

James Fellows, The Age of Murdoch, The Atlantic Monthly (September 2003)

[Skittles]

12. It's all BULLSHIT

they are desperately trying to make is appear that the horrific escalating violence, the needless deaths of our young soldiers, is all somehow "worth it". And if they have to lie and make shit up to do it, that's exactly what these fascist foot soldiers at FOX will do. It's beyond disgusting and very much pathetic.

[oasis]

13. Even Ray Charles could see through FOX/ Weekly Standard's attempt

to legitimize Bush's war.

This is too transparent.

[Monte Carlo]

15. Atta was at two places at once that day, apparently.

He was meeting with an associate of Hussein AND traveling from Florida that day. He was a busy boy.

[Cush]

16. Lol, only FOX is talking about this

Nothing on CNN or MSNBC....that says a lot

[Cush]

17. Now FOX is chaning its tune of the story

"It's RAW INTEL, which means it wasn't verified, etc,... it's not proof of anything"
