It happens every day. I've seen reports out of Iraq saying one thing, knowing exactly what really happened and knowing full well that the report was fed to the media. This is rare and has to come from the highest levels. I won't supply the specifics but the operation was run by Special Ops..very high and deep and resulted in killing and capturing an HVT that saved many US and civilian lives.
Look at our domestic media..completely in the tank for Obama but some, like CNN seem to be shaking it off. There will be a backlash agaisnt him, these things always swing.
