Seymour Hersh is the most trusted and well-connected national security investigative reporter in the nation. (His heir apparent at The New Yorker is Jane Mayer.) He has reliable connections everywhere, including the Bush White House, the CIA, and the Pentagon.

Almost no one vigorously attacks Hersh’s reporting, including the White House and the right-wing media echo chamber. Why? Because many of his sources are from inside the administration and he has such credibility that they would just be drawing attention to his revelations.

1. America can kiss off the corporate media

They are all Homelanders now.

America has been betrayed by it's blow-dry media 'elite.'

2. K&R -- I want false flag operations to be discussed openly.

The TV media avoiding such discussions makes it easier for people to claim "Oh our government would never do such a thing." I'd like them to be open about the reality that yes indeed, the government would consider trying to provoke conflict, has considered it in the past and has done so in the past.

3. Corporate media outlets are the US's version of the USSR's Pravda.

Eventually, the people will catch on and they will be the butt of jokes; no one will believe anything they say. Unfortunately, that's probably going to take a long time.

There is no other reason why the media isn't all over Hersh's story.
