Now it comes to the bank -- cover up the White House did not act alone in trying to hide the truth from you the American people.

That's right the Obama administration got help from -- from some co conspirators.

In the form of its friends.

In the liberal mainstream media joining me now to help expose this blatant bias none other than the president of the Media Research Center Brent Bozell.

All right so yesterday out of the three major networks only ABC acknowledges that intelligence officials on the ground knew it within 24 hours only one.

Watch this.

The White House first suggested visiting Gaza attack was spontaneous.

The result of that the anti Muslim video inciting mosques throughout the region.

And yeah.

-- let's be clear.

This these protests.

Were in reaction to a video that had spread to the region where we certainly don't know we don't know otherwise.

You know we have no information to suggest that it was a -- plans.

Attack but sources tell ABC news that intelligence officials on the ground immediately suspected the attack was not tied to the movie at all.

Really did well we got one out of three woods was on the front pages and we held many newspapers and why Bryant.

Well think about this person won't forget any evidence -- the I could tell you that there was something very suspicious about a -- a massive.

Demonstration over video no one's ever heard -- and who shows up to a demonstration with rocket propelled grenades so they -- scratch your head a little bit and wonder now you have the evidence has been confirmed.

By Newsweek no friend of the conservative movement by the way and by Fox News and apparently that within 24 hours intelligence in the had.

Officials had indication of this and hear Jay Carney saying we have no information on this they absolutely did have information.

-- so when you've got that going on you wonder where are oppressed this happened two weeks ago where are the press covering this -- -- and finally this story -- off it I'll have been doing this a week ago they are covering up the death the terrorists are the Americans there covering -- CBS just sent by John CBS news has yet to cover this.

Yeah are well let's look at NBC they've they've finally did the story but what do they do look.

They played the intelligence community.

You know for getting it wrong as if they know better by the way it's MS DNC got.

It's been more than two weeks since the US ambassador to Libya and three other Americans were killed.

At the US consulate in Ben -- tonight a rare reversal intelligence officials acknowledge they originally got it wrong.

Patience is starting to Wear thin with the pace of the investigation.

And shifting explanations from the administration.

Tonight members of congress from both parties are demanding answers.

Well they -- part of her.

They that they couldn't be more ashamed last shot this is your typical Friday afternoon surprised that we saw this so -- what the Clinton administration now you're saying that what the Obama administration.

Come out with big dollop of information that might sound right but when you look at -- -- it is invited all they're blaming the people who came up with the evidence -- that it with a terrorist attack.

They're blaming them for it now.

So it's obvious we said.

Look simple questions of this president never never been asked Mr.

President.

You said you cut the deficit avenue first term and they went up six trillion dollars you call bush unpatriotic for four -- many years.

Now simple question how about the president you predicted it would have to stimulus by now we would have created eight million new jobs they still have fewer Americans work.

You know Mr.

President you said to be transparent and we see the consulate.

Cables and wires in emails today tomorrow when he listed the.

How about this how about this -- this mister mister president.

You say you were taking our foreign policy -- a different direction the Middle East isn't claims against America and our ambassador is dead what what -- -- out what Mauricio as president.

Met Mr.

President is very quickly Mr.

President in Sudan and they will not allow US Marines to guard American soil what do you have to say about that.

This at this moment that I mean this is Romney has got to understand they're not gonna ask these questions and it's his job to bring it up as of next once -- -- Here's -- and Mitchell.

NBC nightly news and and she says its ambassador rice.

-- sent out with false information that we now know is false as corroborated by a scrubbed the web site at the State Department.

To lie as to Jay Carney has that Secretary Clinton wants us.

It's very unusual for the intelligence committee to make this kind of admission and politics are clearly in play.

The questions being asked are why did they get it wrong.

Was it because there was a cover up or was it because they were trying to avoid acknowledging mistakes this close to an election.

So there is always the political context and certainly the White House today and tonight very strongly defending Susan Rice.

But she is in the cross -- right now of the political argument.

And this is something that is going to be a -- sued by Republicans who have been hammering away for days.

Saying that the administration deliberately covered it up something the White House is strongly -- and.

How about this on the anniversary of nine elevenths in -- god CI -- hotbed for terrorist training that -- might one up beef up security at the thought.

Susan Rice Susan Rice went -- five national television shows and allied.

She absolutely lied.

We know now they had information that this was a terrorist attack she lives she's not caught in any cross hairs she ought to be caught in front of a jury somewhere.

All right Brent Bozell thanks will be able -- so.
