Terrorists Don’t Like Fox News / Like Mainstream Media

From David Ignatius in the Washington Post:

Bin Laden and his aides hoped for big terrorist operations to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Sept. 11, 2001. They also had elaborate media plans. Adam Gadahn, a U.S.-born media adviser, even discussed in a message to his boss what would be the best television outlets for a bin Laden anniversary video.

“It should be sent for example to ABC, CBS, NBC, and CNN and maybe PBS and VOA. As for Fox News let her die in her anger,” Gadahn wrote. At another point, he said of the networks: “From a professional point of view, they are all on one level — except [Fox News] channel, which falls into the abyss as you know, and lacks objectivity, too.”

What an unintended boost for Fox, which can now boast that it is al-Qaeda’s least favorite network.

Osama or Obama? Oops!

The Perfect Song for Today

We had some reservations of this song when it first came out. And not because of the bellicose tone (which we thought absolutely appropriate), but because we don’t think you should threaten things you can’t deliver.

But it turns out we could deliver.
