AP Avoids Reporting Obama's Callous 'We Have Contained ISIS' Statement
NewsBusters.org ^ | November 15, 2015 | Tom Blumer

As of early this morning, Matt Drudge was carrying a link to a story headlining how President Obama is "under fire for saying ISIS 'contained' just hours before Paris attack."

Well, Obama is under some fire, but Drudge's link is to coverage at the UK Daily Mail. That's unfortunately unsurprising, because there is little to no mention of Obama's naive, foolish and callous statement in the U.S. establishment press. So Obama may be "under fire" from people who are paying attention, but low-information news consumers (and voters) who didn't happen to see the original Thursday interview will likely remain unaware of it. In one such example of convenient oversight, the Associated Press published a Thursday evening story on that interview, and decided that its only newsworthy element was Obama's immigration-related criticism of GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump.

Our totally politicized media openly refuses to hold him accountable. That’s how we got the worst president in our nation’s history, and how we may get another.

Obama is as Muslim and radical as any of the suicide attackers in Paris.

I was out for a walk this morning, and I accidentally stepped in some Obama. Didn’t notice till I smelled it just before I went in the house.

It’s possible what he meant was we have them contained here in the US and I can’t wait for the container to explode.

Putin probably was smacking BO around for not being flexible enough.
