why did NBC ABC CNN or CBS didnt cover the fort dix six or jfk airport terrorist?

Question

the only show that did thoes stories where glenn beck and fox all the other shows did only just do paris hilton?

still i didn't see any when it happen on thoes channels.

Answer 1

It was on every news station. I don't know what you mean.

Answer 2

well it was a media show that wanted to show something that may not have be very likely to happen as a terrorist event. Four men can not take fort Dix even on a bad day so I don't think there was enough creditable evidence that a terrorist act was even planned. The Bush camp likes to play these games and the main networks have quit playing too bad the cable guys haven't wised up yet.

Answer 3

I'm retired and have CNN on 24/7... BOTH were breaking stories the MOMENT the police or FBI leaked the information.

SURE, CNN devoted FAR too much time yesterday to Lil Paris going back to court and jail... Good GAWD, the G-8 meetings didn't get that sort of coverage !!

I LOVED "The Daily Show's" comment when she was released: "ShawSkank Redemption"... I laughed for hours !! YES, CNN was on the OTHER monitor

Answer 4

What are you talking about? All of the channels you mentioned covered both stories.

BTW. You do know, don't you, that Beck's TV show is on Headline News which is part of CNN?

Answer 5

Fox covers all the non stories like 6 idiots in a warehous! They weren't terrorists!

And why do you come on here and ask questions that are totally untrue?

It was a CNN Top Story!

Maybe if you watched them you might have seen them. You have to be tuned to something other than FOX! And why would you make a statement like that when you admit you didn't even watch!

Answer 6

Hey, I heard it on ABC a few times. I only watch ABC for my news, unless it's an immediate thing and then I watch CNN because we can't afford FOX, even though I'm a Republican. I listen to our all news station, a CBS affiliate, and they covered it pretty well. C'mon!

Now, the NYTimes ran it on page 37 when the story broke and when I both called and emailed for an explanation, I still haven't gotten one. Good thing I didn't hold my breath!

Answer 7

Just plain untrue. I watch those shows - don't get cable - and I saw plenty of stories on these incidents. Quite likely more than they deserved, since it seems unlikely either group had the brains or skills to do any significant damage.

Answer 8

.... Because those things happened last week and the week before that?

This Hilton thing has only been the past few days.

And as I recall, ALL of those networks covered those foiled terrorist plots. They probably would still be talking about them if Americans didn't care more about Paris Hilton than security.

Paris Hilton = Highest TV ratings this month = $$$$$

Answer 9

They don't cover much of anything at all on the impeachment efforts either. As much as we try to get them to cover it.

Answer 10

All of those news outlets you mentioned are far-left.
The Democrats would greatly suffer if they covered those terrorist plots in America.
The amazing thing is: The New York Times didn't even mention the JFK airport plot until page 30 in their newspaper. FACT.
Outrageous? yes.
Treasonous? yes.

Am I surprised? no.

Those outlets have devouted much more time to Paris Hilton than muslim extremists attempting to kill Americans.

Unbelievable, but absolutely true.
