Bomb Scare Aimed At Media NOT Reported By Reporters In White House

Elaine Meinel Supkis

I started reading Xinhua news regularily after my daughter was unable to get on the train to come home due to a bomb scare that was TOTALLY blacked out of the American media! I read it in the Chinese news as it was unfolding! Well, another bomb scare and another media black-out.

The entire media witness this event since it happened to THEM!

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2 (Xinhua) -- The White House Conference Center, the temporary press room near the U.S. presidential residence, was evacuated for half an hour Friday in a bomb scare, CNN reported.

White House spokesman Tony Fratto had begun his briefing on 9:30 a.m. when he was interrupted by Deputy Press Secretary Scott Stanzel, who said everyone must leave the building, according to the report.

A nearby car checked by a bomb-sniffing dog had tested positive, Stanzel said.

Later, Secret Service said nothing suspicious was found in the vehicle, which was driven by a government contractor and had been stopped at the entrance to the White House complex.

During the bomb scare, nearby streets were closed, but the presidential residence of White House itself was not evacuated.

I know the press corpse (deliberate misspelling) doesn't care if they are blown to smithereens or run over by a big tractor driven by Bush or whatever but not even mentioning news that happens to them, themselves, well! HAHAHA. Why do we have these guys in the first place? Are they all this brain-dead? Just the mere fact that they were sent scurrying like the little rats they are, into the streets because of fears they were going to be blown up, isn't that in the normal world, news?

It should be, I would suggest. Even if no one gives a damn if any of these toads were blown up, they, themselves, should care. The communist Chinese cared enough to make it a sub-headline story at the top of the list of new stories out of America, the land that is terrified it will be blown up. This dovetails with the 'land of the fearful' that we have become. It is very important to see that our ruler is a terrified rabbit and the military in our police state are in hysteria and we are madly scuttling about, trying to avoid being blown up.

So I am adding story number 4 to the list of people running this story today.

Fox news, of all people, were the only Americans to run this story. And all they did was run the same stupid, terse wire put out, obviously their own reporter couldn't tell the story him or herself because they don't know how to write or report anything. This affllicts the entire press corpse. Did we see pictures of Bush laughing while running these idiots over?

No? HELL, it was a damn photo-ops! There should be tons of footage.

And so it goes. If you want to know what is going on here, read the news put out by people who plan to destroy us. You can bet, they are tracking everything, closely.

Ditto Bin Laden. Only he doesn't run any newspapers. Maybe we should ask him.

Click here to see short Fox news story. I will also note, we can see from the illustration at the top, the Fox news headline was written by someone who decided to minimize it as much as possible since there is no descriptive words like 'BOMB THREAT!' or some such. It is the most ho-hum headline they could devise.

"Later, Secret Service said nothing suspicious was found in the vehicle, which was driven by a government contractor and had been stopped at the entrance to the White House complex."

When I opened your story, I thought I was going to read about an actual bomb. But noooo.

I submit that it would have been news if they'd actually found something. Do you actually want a big screaming headline every time the Secret Service tosses a car and finds... diddly?

They were EVACUATED. Life was DISRUPTED. OK, Smith, the 'bomb' scare in Boston was a child's toy gimick. According to you, it shouldn't have been news, right?

adult cartoon gimmick.

it wasn't news, until the news made it news. perhaps if FUX hadn't hyped it, it wouldn't have gotten all blown out of proportion. but they're the ***All Terror-All The Time*** network.

It was news in China and Canada, but not here, huh? I've seen this kind of thing all my life (of course). It happens at local papers too. THEY 'make' the news. They should go to Iraq and roam around the non-green zone. I am sure there is lots of news there. The thing with Hillary 'not taking anything off the table' regarding Iran was so depressing I gave up blogging today. However, Matt Stoller did a 'front page' piece on it, so that was encouraging. The only candidate who had said that it would be unwise to attack Iran at a meeting he went to was Wesley Clark. I have developed a lot of information on the situation there. In the link:

it is said that:

««America is now 75% dependent on foreign imported oil. About 23.5% of America's imported oil supply comes from the Persian Gulf. To cut off this oil supply, Iran can simply mine the Strait of Hormuz, using bottom-rising sea mines. It is worthwhile to note that Iran has the world's fourth-largest inventory of sea mines, after China, Russia and the US.»»

So just having all those ships in the Persian Gulf is a huge hazard.

Politicians are like the lizards I used to catch down in Louisiana when I was a kid. I would take them and place them in a different location and watch their colors change, and then I would move them again and watch...and again and again and again. I was fascinated by it.

I don't think they cared much for it, since I was not paying them or feeding them. But I was keeping the cats from playing with them, so that should count for something.

"According to you, it [the Boston 'bomb' scare] shouldn't have been news, right?"

It was newsworthy... in that it showed how idiotically hysterical law enfarcement can be.

I have an old VCR - it's a box with electronics inside, and it trails wires. I bet the cops would crap if I left that laying around somewhere!
