We, the cognescenti, know that Mike and David broke the story. They have even received an award for it. I doubt that the MSM will give them any credit, though.

Whether SeeBS actually “broke” the story or not, she and (grudgingly) her network deserve credit for being the only MSM outlet to give the story some coverage.

Sipsey Street Irregulars blog. THEY are the ones who are behind this. They deserve full credit for the exposure.

Ms Attkisson has done good reporting on this matter and deserves credit.

It was only through the dogged uncompromising work of Mike and David that FF ever saw the light of day.

They smelled a rat and ferreted the rats out.

Sipsey Street Irregulars- HEROES.

The Lamestream media acts like Bath-House Barry—takes credit where none is due.

This story would NOT have gotten out without the Sipsey Street Irregulars.

NO kudos for MSM.

Looks to me that Mesta has identified the “Buckhead” and that CBS was just the conduit for getting the word out to the people. Both a necessary in the link of public knowledge.
