CBS 60 Minutes airs mail from Nut Bags supporting their story with the Benghazi liar. No retraction.

[itsrobert]

As expected 60 Minutes doubled downed and did not air a retraction on their flawed Benghazi story.

Three letters from nutbags supporting CBS was aired instead.

"Why didn't we send help to Benghazi? Who is responsible for this decision?" Al Phaneuf, Orlando, Fl

"It's about time! Your network has been a bit tepid in your reporting of the Libya terror attacks...but tonight's report was amazing." Carolyn Stephens, Winter Haven, FL

"Wy no comments from former Secretary of State Clinton... Sounds lik you have more work to do to get to the truth." Al DiNardo Saugus, MA

1. 60 Minutes = stodgy version of the O'Reilly Report. It's not a serious journalistic enterprise.

Rather, rightwing sensationalism spoken without a raised voice.

They fired Dan Rather for less.

2. ... the man identified in the report as Morgan Jones... real name was confirmed as Dylan Davies...

Media Matters Founder Calling on 60 Minutes to Retract Report on Benghazi

60 Minutes did a new, in-depth report on the attack at the American consulate in Benghazi last year, and it helped to revitalize the national debate over the attack. CBS’s report featured an exclusive with a man who recounted what he witnessed, but Media Matters founder David Brock is calling on 60 Minutes to retract the report for a big error.

The key criticism here surrounds the man identified in the report as Morgan Jones (though his real name was confirmed as Dylan Davies afterwards). He told 60 Minutes he was witness to the attack, and described what he saw around him, but a Washington Post report on Thursday says that does not match his earlier testimony on the matter, just three days after the attack on the compound.

In Davies’s 21 / 2-page incident report to Blue Mountain, the Britain-based contractor hired by the State Department to handle perimeter security at the compound, he wrote that he spent most of that night at his Benghazi beach-side villa. Although he attempted to get to the compound, he wrote in the report, “we could not get anywhere near .?.?. as roadblocks had been set up.”

He learned of Stevens’s death, Davies wrote, when a Libyan colleague who had been at the hospital came to the villa to show him a cellphone picture of the ambassador’s blackened corpse. Davies wrote that he visited the still-smoking compound the next day to view and photograph the destruction.
