because the Associated Press hadn't written about it. Wasn't it the Associated Press that gave the election numbers in the election? Now they were remiss in covering the Downing Street Minutes for almost a month? What gives here????

1. The American Associated Press carefully growing back its balls?
After all this time of being complicit, and refusing to report it fearing cutbacks and losing jobs they suddenly come out in force.......

A good sign!!!!! :thumbsup:

2. I hope this will finally make the world aware AP is a propaganda outlet.
They are releasing the info now because the Internet forced them to. They are being pushed quickly from dominating world daily news to irrelevance by the Internet.

3. the true purpose of the press is to sell soap;
MSM , both print and T.V. , are loosing customers because it doesn't take much to see that they've turned into fluff...If people are turning to the net to get their news , this will force them to compete...I hope the DSM sells lots of newspapers.

4. Knight Ridder covered "fixed intel" since Oct 2002. They went front page
with DSM on May 6.

The press KNEW about it. AP knew about it.
