interesting from Al-Qaida about news

[mainjet]

This is a snipit from Osama bin Ladens spokesman Gadahn. He writes about the U.S. news networks.

The correspondence suggests that al-Qaida carefully monitored U.S. cable news networks and generally didn't like what it saw. "We can say that there is no single channel that we could rely on for our messages," Gadahn wrote, although he described ABC as "all right, actually it could be one of the best channels as far as we are concerned." He complained that Fox News "falls into the abyss, as you know, and lacks neutrality." CNN, he said, "seems to be in cooperation with the government more than the others except Fox News, of course."
Gadahn suggested sending videos of bin Laden's remarks to all the U.S. news networks — except Fox News. "Let her die in anger," he wrote.

So, they found Fox to be the least sympathetic to their views, the least likely to "rely on for our messages". What exactly is the news here? That ABC, CBS, NY Times, etc were more sympathetic?

Guess so ... at least according to an ap intelligence writter.

Sounds like an oxymoron.

Gadahn ... "Let her die in anger," ...

Pretty well sums up my feelings for him/her, bin laden, their followers, and sympathizers.
