The silliness of Inner City Press
Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on June 29, 2012 - 12:23am.
Regarding the last comment -- Not only that, the Libya document was out of date, obsolete by the time Lee published it. It was freely available at the UN but no one bothered to report on it because it was out of date and out of touch with reality. It was about a UN proposal for truce monitors, something the Libyan rebels never wanted because they were convinced they were going to win the war, which they did. The winning side in a war would NEVER accept truce monitors because they don't want a truce. They want victory. So the suggestion that Lee's belated reporting on it caused the Libyan rebels to give up plans for a truce monitoring force is silly at best, dishonest at the worst.
Also, the Reuters, AP and others' stories on Feltman in May were written out of Washington, not the UN, after Feltman himself briefed reporters there. The suggestion that anyone "stole" Lee's story 7 weeks after the fact is absurd. All it shows is that no one in the State Dept press corps regularly reads Inner City Press. Besides, UN Pass Blue reported on Feltman getting the UN job after Lee and before AP, Reuters and others reported on it may.
