Good point. NBC hyped that they had this exclusive; started advertising it in the early afternoon to get their ratings up for the evening news. They succeeded...Drudge reports a blow-out for NBC on this story — very high audience.
The decision was based solely on the almighty buck. Disgraceful.
I sent FNC a very nasty email this morning, I was sickened by their continued coverage of the video.
But the blame goes to NBC; they “own it” as Brian William said before the decision to air it and others followed suit.
I e-mailed FNC last night and told them that one news cycle was enough. It’s bad enough we have weeks and months worth of coverage of an endless parade of human debris.
