Last week, 60 Minutes did a major Benghazi piece featuring a security contractor who evidently lied to them.
60 Minutes gave the guy a fake name, but his story of being an eyewitness to the attack was soon discovered to contradict what he had reported to his superiors.
Far from retracting or correcting the story, or mentioning that the contractor's book is being published by a CBS subsidiary that "specializes in conservative nonfiction," 60 Minutes ended its show tonight with three teabaggerish letters praising the story.
As if the substantial media controversy over the contractor's credibility never happened.
For right-wingers, the Benghazi conspiracy theory is a two-fer -- weakening both the current Democratic President and his likely Democratic successor.
Which is why wingnut radio, Fox "News", and sites like Drudge and World Nut Daily have been beating the Benghazi drum for more than a year.
For 60 Minutes to join that motley crew of serial liars is shameful.
Then to refuse to correct the flawed story, instead broadcasting letters praising it, is even worse.
It's like they don't even care about the truth -- it's all about the money.
