MSM bias is shown in the stories they don't cover, even more than in the slant they give to the stories they do cover. This story has been curiously absent from the MSM, This Man Tried to Assassinate President Bush:
His name is Vladimir Arutyunyan; he was captured by Georgian police after a shootout in which he killed a policeman and was himself wounded. On May 10, when President Bush was giving a speech in Tbilisi, he threw a hand grenade at the stage. It landed within 25 yards or so, but failed to go off. After Arutyunyan was arrested, police found more hand grenades and unspecified chemicals in his apartment.
A sitting American President, giving support to a nascent Democracy in a troubled corner of the world has a live grenade thrown at him. A naive person might imagine that a well respected news organization like the New York Times would show some interest in the story. This is dereliction of duty, as far as I'm concerned. If I gave a patient medication that is potentially fatal if taken as an overdose without inquiring if he is depressed, I would be guilty of medical malpractice; too bad we cannot sue the Times for Journalistic malpractice.
But if the Times is guilty of dereliction of duty, ABC is guilty of accessory after the fact to one of the most evil pieces of terror in the recent past:
ABC uses the "Freedom of the Press" excuse to explain their "Nightline" interview with the mastermind behind the Beslan Massacre, the Moscow Theatre Massacre, and countless other terrorist attacks in Russia!
Read the entire piece at Gateway Pundit; this goes beyond freedom of the press, beyond trying to "understand" the "root causes" of terror. Terrorists require publicity; it is their sine qua non; without publicity, the terrorists will die from lack of Oxygen.
The terrorists exist in an evil symbiosis with the MSM and the MSM act like the naive suicide bomber who is surprised when he arrives in Hell to discover that God really meant it when he said, "Thou shall not kill."
