Don't be so hard on CBS, they're only quoting the Washington Post.

The Washington Post said Saturday that a top-secret briefing memo presented to President Bush in 1998 focused on efforts by Osama bin Laden to strike at targets in the U.S.

This is what the article your link points to really says:

The Washington Post reports that a 1998 top-secret briefing memo to the president was entitled, “Bin Laden Determined To Strike In U.S” and focused mainly on past efforts by the alleged terrorist mastermind to infiltrate the U.S. and hit targets here.

No, it's not corrected, it is changed entirely.

God forbid that they would have just corrected it and shown Clinton as the one who received the info.

So transparent, they had to substitue a different article .

It's now changed to " ...briefing memo to the president." Notice it wasn't changed from President Bush to President Clinton.

The way I read the new version is they have changed it to lay the blame sqarely on Bush by now citing an August 6 memo. They left out the 1998 part and have absolutely no mention of Clinton anywhere in the article. This is from the Washington Post version. Both articles have changed in the last ten minutes. It's been hard to keep up with it.

Paging Ann Coulter. Her new book is filled with this blatant bias.

We should send this thread to EVERY news outlet, media person and political operative we can find.
