(np) big O, say it isn't so...

[Henry M]

Why does one choose to believe Democracy Now and Al Jazeera more than the
New York Times, while someone else chooses Fox "News" over the MSNBC?  Who
is Jeremy Scahill?  The only thing that Wikileaks provided was a cable from
Saleh to Petraeus.  Do you believe everything that Saleh says?  Then why do
believe what Saleh says in a cable?

The mainstream American press isn't exactly uncritical of Obama and the
wars.  What is the current explanation (that does not hammer Occam's Razor
into paranoid oblivion) for why they don't have this story?
